International Transfers of Personal Data
In the course of providing services, personal data collected from users in India may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in countries other than India. Such transfers may occur when the platform works with partners, affiliates, service providers, or technical infrastructure located outside India.
Basis for International Transfers
By creating an account and using the services offered through this platform, users provide their explicit consent to the international transfer of their personal data as described in this document. This includes transfers to jurisdictions that may have data protection standards different from those applicable in India.
Safeguards Applied to Cross-Border Transfers
Regardless of where personal data is processed, the platform ensures that all agents, affiliates, and third-party partners who receive such data are bound by strict confidentiality and data protection obligations. These obligations are enforced through:
- Contractual data processing agreements with all relevant parties
- Regular due diligence reviews of third-party data handling practices
- Requirements that partner organisations maintain technical and organisational security standards equivalent to those applied by the platform itself
Users who do not consent to international data transfers should refrain from using the platform’s services, as such transfers are an inherent aspect of the global infrastructure required to deliver those services.
