To provide our services and ensure the proper functioning of the Application, we use services of third-party technology providers that host and store your personal data from countries located outside the European Economic Area, such as Amazon Web Services, whose privacy policy can be found here: https://aws.amazon.com/privacy/?nc1=h_ls. The services of these providers, therefore, imply the existence of an international transfer of your personal data, which could imply a lower level of protection than that provided for in the European regulations. However, your data are located in the EU-West-1 zone and in this case, the corresponding measures are applied, as well as the formalization of the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission. You can request an updated list of these recipients by sending an email to hello@billions.network.
