If User contacts our customer service, we will use the provided information for answering questions and solving possible issues.

TRANSFER TO COUNTRIES OUTSIDE EUROPE
The data handled within our service platform for investors and founders is stored within the EU/EEA.

We will take steps to ensure that Users’ personal data receives an adequate level of protection in the jurisdictions in which we process it. We provide adequate protection for the transfer of personal data to countries outside of the European Economic Area through a series of inter Neural DSP Technologies Oy agreements and agreements with our service providers based on the Standard Contractual Clauses or other similar arrangements.
