5. Communication to Third Parties
We may disclose your personal data to third parties in case this is necessary for the proper operation of the Site.

6. International Transfers
Your personal data may be disclosed outside of your country of residence, including to countries that do not guarantee the same level of data protection and privacy as Switzerland and the European Union.
6.1 The personal data that we collect from you may be stored and processed in your region, or transferred to, stored at or otherwise processed outside your country of residence, including, in respect of residents of a country within the European Economic Area (the “EEA”) or Switzerland, in a country outside the EEA or Switzerland, including without limitation the U.S. and/or India, or any other country which do not necessarily offer an adequate level of data protection as recognized by the European Commission or Switzerland. Your personal data may also be processed by staff operating inside or outside your country of residence, including staff located outside of the EEA or Switzerland, who work for us or our service providers.
6.2 Where we transfer your Personal Data outside the EEA or Switzerland, we will ensure that suitable safeguards are in place to help ensure that our third party service providers provide an adequate level of protection to your Personal Data, for instance by relying on the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework, the Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework, or on standard contractual clauses adopted by the European Commission.

7. Security
We maintain physical, technical and procedural safeguards to keep secure your personal data.

We restrict access to your personal data to those persons who need to know it for the purpose described in this Privacy Policy.
7.2 Although we take appropriate steps to protect your personal data, no website is completely secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that data you provide to us is safe and protected from all unauthorized third-party access and theft. We waive any liability in this respect.
7.3 The internet is a global environment. As a result, by sending information to us electronically, such data may be transferred internationally over the internet depending upon your location. Internet is not a secure environment and this Privacy Policy applies to your use and disclosure of your personal data once it is under our control only. Given the inherent nature of the internet, all internet transmissions are done at your own risk.
7.4 If we have reasonable reasons to believe that your personal data have been acquired by an unauthorized person, and applicable law requires notification, we will promptly notify you of the breach by email (if we have it) and/or by any other channel of communication (including by posting a notice on the Site).
