05. Information about international data transfers
The IMVL website uses servers which are hosted in the EU and in the UK. However, we may share website personal data with suppliers or group companies located outside of the EU or the UK where this is necessary for the purposes described above. Where this happens, IMVL applies safeguards to add to the data protections that apply to those data transfers. This includes an assessment of the adequacy of the third country in question, use of European Commission approved model contract terms where appropriate.
TELL ME MORE
About the adequacy checks IMVL puts in place for international data transfers
Where IMVL chooses to share personal data with a third party located outside the EU or the UK, the following factors are assessed to support adequate transfer of this data:
- Internal checks to identify the existence or absence of any adequacy decision by the European Commission. IMVL has group companies, and use suppliers located in countries that have been approved by the European Commission as having essentially equivalent data protection laws, which the UK also recognises. A full list of these countries as at the date of this Privacy Policy is: Andorra, Argentina, Canada, Faroe Islands, Guernsey, Israel, Switzerland, Jersey, New Zealand, Uruguay and the Isle of Man. This list and information about the protections the European Commission has considered is available via this link.
- Use of measures like European Commission approved measures to support adequate transfers of personal data. IMVL also has group companies, and use suppliers located in countries that are elsewhere in the world. To manage data protection compliance with these transfers, IMVL uses European Commission approved data transfer mechanisms such as use of model contractual clauses approved by the Commission, which the UK also recognises for data transfers from the UK. IMVL will also assess where applicable where a supplier is able to demonstrate to us they have Binding Corporate Rules. (Binding Corporate Rules is a GDPR – recognised Data Protection mechanism to ensure adequate personal data transfers). To understand the protections required in European Commission approved Model Clauses, a template copy of these is accessible from this location.
