UK/EU Privacy
Following our decision to leave the EU, the UK is now considered a “third country”. An agreement in mid-2021 was reached between the EU and the UK that we would have a continuity partnership concerning data flow, meaning there are no particular restrictions or requirements for either to alter or adapt anything from previous arrangements when we were part of the EU. So, if you’re in an EU country and using our services, the same rules apply to your data and the use of our services.
You can read more about these arrangements and what they mean here
