5. Note on data transfer to the USA
Among other things, services from companies based in the USA are also integrated on our app. Where possible, we will set all services in a manner that processing of your data only takes place within the European Union. Nevertheless, when these services are active, we cannot completely rule out the possibility that your personal data may be passed on to the US servers of the respective service providers in their network. We would like to point out that the USA is not a safe third country in the sense of European data protection law. US companies may be obliged to hand over personal data to security authorities without you as the data subject being able to take legal action against this. It can therefore not be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. intelligence services) process, evaluate and permanently store your data located on US servers for monitoring purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.To legitimize such processing that may occur in the USA, we agree on the so-called EU standard contractual clauses with the providers concerned. These ensure that if personal data is processed in the USA, your rights are protected and safeguarded in the same way as in the European Union. If you give your consent to the use of the respective services, this also includes your consent for a possible data transfer to the USA. Your consent may serve as the legal basis for the transfer to third countries in accordance with Article 49 (1) (a) of the GDPR. If you give your consent to the use of the respective services, this also includes your consent for a possible data transfer to the USA.
