These providers are bound by data processing agreements and are obligated to protect your information in compliance with applicable law.

Your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your country of residence, including countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Where such transfers occur, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission, or transfers to countries with an EU adequacy decision. For transfers to the United States, we rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework where applicable. You may request details of the safeguards in place by contacting us at legal@swiftsend.io.
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encryption in transit (TLS), access controls, and regular security reviews.
