In particular, we have suppliers based in India and Europe. Where this is the case, and where the transfer is to a country or territory that is not subject to an adequacy decision by the EU Commission, personal data is adequately protected by EU Commission-approved standard contractual clauses (which have been implemented pursuant to Article 42 (2) of the GDPR) or the EU-US Privacy Shield.

 to erase your personal data; or restrict its processing (i.e. processing will temporarily stop (save to the extent that personal data will continue to be stored)).
