A current list of these providers, with links to their policies, is available on request at hello@precisionvisa.com.
6. Data Transfers via Cookies
Some cookie providers may process data outside the EEA. Where this occurs, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses), consistent with our Privacy Policy.
