International Data Transfers

The Personal Information we collect in managing our supplier relationship is processed in the local country where our suppliers are providing services and in the United States. Some of the data recipients to whom the Company may disclose your Personal Information may be located in countries other than where your Personal Information was originally collected.

However, we will protect your Personal Information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable laws when we transfer your Personal Information to recipients in other countries, including the United States.

When transferring your Personal Information to third countries, we will take appropriate measures, in compliance with legal regulations, to protect your Personal Information.

In the event that you have an account with us, access to your account on the Platform will automatically be terminated if your contract with the Company terminates or expires. Personal Information associated with your account will be deleted in accordance with applicable laws. The Company may however retain Personal Information for a longer period of time in accordance with applicable laws to enforce our legal rights or comply with our legal obligations. If Personal Information is not deleted because it is retained for legally permitted purposes, its processing will be restricted. This means that the data is blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to data that must be kept for commercial, legal, or tax reasons.
