Each of these vendors has gone through a rigorous selection process to ensure it has the required technical expertise and can deliver the appropriate level of security and privacy. Also, as per the GDPR provisions, each of these data transfers is supported by appropriate safeguards: through the use of EC Standard Contractual Clauses or ad-hoc contracts approved the Belgian Data Protection Authority.
