While Brighton Bond operates primarily within Argentina, some of our technical infrastructure and service providers may be located in other countries. When we transfer your data internationally, we ensure adequate protection through:

• Selecting service providers in countries with adequate data protection frameworks

• Using encryption and other technical measures to protect data in transit and storage
• Regular reviews of international partners' security and privacy practices

You have the right to request specific information about any international transfers of your data and the safeguards in place.
