Professional advisers such as our accountant or solicitor, where necessary.
Authorities, where required by law, court order, or to protect our legal rights.

We do not transfer personal data outside the UK/EEA except where a service provider we use (such as Wix) processes data on servers located elsewhere, in which case appropriate safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) apply as required by UK GDPR.

6. Cookies
