However, we will not allow these organisations to use your data for their own purposes and will take care to ensure that they keep your data secure.

- Consent: we may share your data in other ways and for new purposes if you have asked us to do so and have consented to such sharing.
Those recipients may be located both in and outside the European Union. Your personal data will not be transferred to any country outside the European Union which does not ensure an adequate level of protection unless you gave us prior authorisation to do so or specific measures (adequate security measures such as model clauses) have been taken by us in order to ensure that the requirements of the applicable data protection law have been fulfilled.
