Article 4 – TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA OUTSIDE EEA
Anonos may transfer personal data outside the EEA to the U.S., India and the Philippines. In the event we transfer personal data to our U.S. offices or team members located outside the EEA, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place. By agreeing to this Privacy Policy, you give your consent to have your personal data transferred to our U.S offices in accordance with this article and the GDPR.
Although you have given Anonos explicit consent to process your personal data outside the EEA, Anonos shall take all necessary, though appropriate, measures to ensure compliance with the GDPR and relevant jurisprudence from the European Court of Justice (e.g. Schrems II).
In this context, Anonos recognizes a set of principles, called the Data Embassy Principles, to help address and mitigate certain issues arising from the Schrems II-case regarding data transfers outside the EEA such as to the U.S. With regard to the secondary processing of your data, Anonos makes appropriate use of the Data Embassy Principles.

As a result, risks arise from the fact that personal data related to your use of our website, portals or services will be transferred to the U.S, a country that the Court of Justice of the European Unions (CJEU) has ruled does not provide adequate protection equivalent to that under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

This enables Google Analytics to collect data about traffic on this site via Google advertising cookies and identifiers, in addition to data collected through a standard Google Analytics implementation. Anonos will not identify users or facilitate the merging of personally identifiable information with non-personally identifiable information collected through any Google advertising product or feature without first securing users’ prior affirmative (i.e., opt-in) consent to, that identification or merger. Irrespective of user consent, Anonos will not attempt to disaggregate data that Google reports in aggregate. If you wish to opt-out of Google Analytics, download and install the Google opt-out add-on for your web browser. The Google Analytics opt-out add-on is designed to be compatible with Chrome, Internet Explorer 11, Safari, Firefox and Opera.

The third-party providers Anonos uses may or may not do anything in response to this signal.

Choice
If Personal Data covered by this Privacy Shield Policy is to be used for a new purpose that is materially different from that for which the Personal Data was originally collected or subsequently authorized, or is to be disclosed to a non-agent third party, Anonos will provide Data Subjects with an opportunity to choose whether to have their Personal Data so used or disclosed. Requests to opt out of such uses or disclosures of Personal Data should be sent to: dpo(at)anonos.com in line with the procedure set forth in Article 6 of this Privacy Policy.
If Special Categories of Personal Data covered by this Privacy Policy is to be used for a new purpose that is different from that for which the Personal Data was originally collected or subsequently authorized, or is to be disclosed to a third party, Anonos will obtain the Data Subject’s explicit consent prior to such use or disclosure, unless the use thereof can be done in accordance with Article 6, 1 (f) GDPR and Article 9, 2 (j) GDPR.
Accountability for Onward Transfer
In the event we transfer Personal Data covered by this Privacy Shield Policy to a third party acting as a controller, we will do so consistent with any notice provided to Data Subjects and any consent they have given, and only if the third party has given us contractual assurances that it will (i) process the Personal Data for limited and specified purposes consistent with any consent provided by the Data Subjects, (ii) provide at least the same level of protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles and notify us if it makes a determination that it cannot do so; and (iii) cease processing of the Personal Data or take other reasonable and appropriate steps to remediate if it makes such a determination. If Anonos has knowledge that a third party acting as a controller is processing Personal Data covered by this Privacy Shield Policy in a way that is contrary to the Privacy Shield Principles, Anonos will take reasonable steps to prevent or stop such processing.
In accordance with Article 3.3 of this Privacy Policy and with respect to our agents, team member or another third party acting as a processor (hereianfter Processor) , we will transfer only the Personal Data covered by this Privacy Shield Policy needed for a Processor to deliver to Anonos the requested product or service. Furthermore, we will (i) permit the Processor to process such Personal Data only for limited and specified purposes; (ii) require the Processor to provide at least the same level of privacy protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles; (iii) take reasonable and appropriate steps to ensure that the Processor effectively processes the Personal Data transferred in a manner consistent with Anonos’ obligations under the Privacy Shield Principles; and (iv) require the Processor to notify Anonos if it makes a determination that it can no longer meet its obligation to provide the same level of protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles. Upon receiving notice from an Processor that it can no longer meet its obligation to provide the same level of protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles, we will take reasonable and appropriate steps to stop and remediate unauthorized processing.
Anonos remains liable under the Privacy Shield Principles if an Processor processes Personal Data covered by this Privacy Shield Policy in a manner inconsistent with the Principles, except where Anonos is not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.
