order to provide our services in a different country at your request. We may also transfer
personal data to another country if that is necessary to respond to a customer support request
that you submitted outside your region. Because our services involve multiple users at the
same time, limited personal data may be accessible to the other user in another country.
We do so in order to fulfill our agreements with all our users, or based on users’ instructions or
prior consent, adequacy decisions for the relevant countries or other transfer mechanisms as
may be available under applicable law, such as the Standard Contractual Clauses.
We may also transfer data to other countries in order to respond to a request for personal data
from a law enforcement agency. To provide additional safeguards to these data transfers,
Tails, Beaks and Feets App applies a robust internal procedure for processing these requests.
Tails, Beaks and Feets App only discloses personal data to law enforcement agencies in a
manner that is consistent with the regulatory requirements of applicable laws, such as the
GDPR.

Feets App has implemented the following measures across the globe:
policies and procedures to limit access to, and the processing of, personal data for defined
purposes;
specific training of personnel responsible for managing personal data;
a government data access policy that refuses government access to data, except when
disclosure is mandated by applicable laws including the EU GDPR, there is imminent risk of
serious harm to individuals or consent is obtained;
robust protection of data while it is in transit between Tails, Beaks and Feets App apps and our
servers, and when the data is processed on our servers. This includes encryption and the use of
pseudonymised data to help protect users’ full identity against unauthorised disclosure.
