Transfers outside the EEA: As stated above, we may transfer your Data outside of the EEA, to our group companies (see below*). We understand that this is necessary to manage your queries and that it does not impact on your interest and rights as data subject (legitimate interest). As said, we may also transfer your Data to franchisees outside of the EEA in the case you wish information about a non-EEA country. In these cases, we understand that you consent to it. Our franchisees are numerous and changing (see below **). We will do our best to inform you of their exact names, but do not hesitate to contact us if you wish for any clarification.

We have ensured that all transfers of Data outside of the EEA are subject to appropriate safeguards, by signing standard data protection clauses.

Your rights: The GDPR also requires that we list your statutory rights. These are the following:

1. Right to request access to and rectification or erasure of personal data.
2. Right to restriction of processing. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your Data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the Data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the Data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the Data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your Data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
3. Right to object to processing. Where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your Data for direct marketing purposes.
4. Right to data portability. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, the personal data you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
5. Right to withdraw consent at any time (without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal).
