employees are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and a breach of this
agreement would result in the employee's termination.

While we take all reasonable precautions to ensure that user data is secure and that
users are protected, there always remains the risk of harm. The Internet as a whole can
be insecure at times and therefore we are unable to guarantee the security of user data
beyond what is reasonably practical.

adequate data protection by the European Commission or, if you are in the
United Kingdom, by the United Kingdom adequacy regulations; or

into standard EU or United Kingdom data protection contractual clauses with the
recipient.
