We may disclose your data if required by law or if necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of 3dsly, the Website, or its users.
Some of our service providers and partners operate outside the European Economic Area (EEA), so your personal data may be transferred internationally.
When transferring data outside the EEA, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including but not limited to:
Transfers only to countries recognized by the European Commission as providing adequate protection for personal data.
Agreements with recipients, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC), ensuring equivalent data protection.
Obtaining your consent for specific transfers.
Reliance on other authorized transfer mechanisms.
