We use international cloud services for processing personal data, in connection with which in some cases personal data is transferred  outside the EU/EEA. When service providers transfer personal data outside the EU and EEA, we ensure an adequate level of personal data protection by ensuring that the service provider processes data in accordance with the EU GDPR regulation. In practice, this means that we ensure that the service provider meets either the adequacy decisions of the European Commission or standard contract clauses approved by the Commission are used. 

 

List of service providers which store or process personal data on our behalf: 

​

Wix.com– Wix.com is a website service provider. If the customer wishes, he can leave a contact request on our website. The contact request asks for the customer's contact information (name, email address, phonenumber). The form is saved in the service provider's cloud service, where  data is stored. This is necessary so that we can offer an easy and flexible contact form functionality on our website. Wix's servers are located in different parts of the world. Wix complies with the EU data protection regulation.  

​

After sending the contact form, we contact the potential customer and continue the conversation by phone/email. When ordering the service, the contact information is checked by email, after which the contact form is deleted from Wix. If the contact does not lead to an order, the contact form will be removed from Wix's website within two months at the latest.
