This concerns our hosting provider and suppliers of online tools. These online tools allow us for example to send the newsletter, follow up on your questions or comments or process your application. These third-party providers help us with particular features, content, and analysis about how users’ access and use our online services. When you access or use our online services, certain information, such as your IP address, may be collected directly by these third-party providers.
We may use third-party software to track applications. Such as Google Analytics, for example.
Personal data may be processed outside the E.U. or E.E.R. Most of the time it concerns the United States. We ensure that the third parties who process your personal data are Privacy Shield-certified or work with the model contracts of the E.U. for transfer.
We may use third-party services and products in connection with the operation and management of our online services and content.
