8. Data Security
We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal data.

Your information, including personal data, may be transferred to and maintained on servers located outside of your jurisdiction (notably in the United States, where Vercel, Clerk, Convex, and PostHog may operate). If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, we ensure that transfers of personal data are protected by appropriate safeguards, including Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission (Decision 2021/914), in accordance with Chapter V of the GDPR.
