We may also subcontract some personal data processing (e.g. cloud services used for storing data; email marketing and customer communication; accounting; invoicing and payment methods). These services providers are in a contractual relationship with us and they do not usually have a right to process the data for any other purposes than for our benefit.

Is personal data transferred outside the EU?

Personal data is primarily processed inside the EU, but as data is stored mainly in electronic form, some of the cloud services we use may locate outside the EU (e.g. Google Cloud). If personal data is transferred outside the EU, we make sure that the transferee is located in a country with adequate safeguards (as decided by the EU commission from time to time), the transferee is Privacy Shield certified (if a US-based company) or the transfer occurs by using model clauses published by the EU commission.

Livion processes such data for each specific customer’s benefit only, based on written agreements and in accordance with applicable laws.

For how long is data stored?

We will not store personal data for a longer period than is necessary for its purpose or required by contract or law.
