Examples of Third Parties include CRM and marketing automation providers.

In instances where personal data is processed by Third Parties outside of the EEA, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your information to the same or an equivalent level as would be found in UK and EU data protection legislation. The safeguards we use include:
