Tali misure possono prevedere il trasferimento dei Suoi dati solo verso giurisdizioni per le quali è stata presa una decisione di adeguatezza della Commissione europea o, in sua assenza, l’utilizzo di clausole tipo approvate dalla Commissione europea.

ARK Invest International Ltd può addebitare un contributo spese ragionevole per soddisfare le richieste di ulteriori copie degli stessi dati.
