They process data only to provide agreed services and are bound by confidentiality and data protection commitments. We also share information when the law requires it and when we must protect our rights or the safety of others.
International transfers
Some providers process information in data centers outside your country. We use contracts and industry safeguards that are appropriate for those transfers.
