All processors act on our instructions and are bound by data processing agreements under Art. 28 GDPR.

Some providers (e.g. Google) may process data outside the European Economic Area. Where this happens, we make sure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as the EU–US Data Privacy Framework or the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.
