7. International transfer
Some of our service providers are located in countries outside the European Economic Area ("EEA").
The location of these companies outside the EEA implies the existence of an international transfer of your personal data, which may result in a lower level of protection than that provided by European legislation. Nevertheless, PIPER has taken steps to ensure that such transfers do not result in a lower level of protection for your personal data.
In this regard, service providers outside the EEA have a valid mechanism to be able to carry out international transfers: (i) either they have signed the relevant Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission ("SCC"), an agreement signed by both entities in which the non-EU company guarantees that it will apply European data protection standards or, (ii) if they are US companies, they may be certified by the new EU-US Data Privacy Framework ("DPF") compliance decision.
Therefore, using these providers will not result in a lower level of protection for your personal data than using providers located in the EU.
