The collected data will not be disseminated, but may be disclosed to third parties acting on behalf of the Data Controller as Data Processors (e.g., website hosting service providers, audio streaming platform providers, IT maintenance services). The updated list of Data Processors may be requested from the Data Controller. No data transfers are carried out outside the European Economic Area (EEA) without adequate legal safeguards.
