In cases where there is a requirement for data to be shared with countries outside of the EU, we require all services providers to process your information in a secure manner and in accordance with applicable law on data protection. We also require that said countries meet the adequacy requirements of EU law. In all cases we utilise secure means to legitimise data transfers outside the EU to meet our obligations to you. Article 45 of the GDPR, which defines “transfers on the basis of an adequacy decision”, stipulates that the transfer of personal data to a third-party country or to an international organisation may take place if the Commission has ruled that that third-party country, a territory or one or more specific sectors of that third-party country, or the international organisation in question, offers an adequate degree of protection. Such transfers do not need to be authorised separately.
Please note that Sunrise Technologies does not sell or pass your personal information to third parties (other than as set out in the paragraph above) unless you have given us permission or unless it is strictly necessary to deliver the products and services ordered or used by you and you are notified beforehand. For example, we may disclose your data to a “credit check” company to validate your “company worthiness” or disclose limited details to third party suppliers of software and hardware for purchase and audit reasons.
Sunrise Technologies may also be obliged to disclose your personal information to meet any legal or regulatory requirements (for example to comply with a court order) or obligations in accordance with applicable law.

Other people, not us, control these platforms. We are not responsible for this kind of sharing. We recommend you should review the terms and conditions and privacy policies of the social media platforms you use. That way, you will understand how they will use your information, what information relating to you they will place in the public domain, and how you can stop them from doing so if you are unhappy about it.
Any blog, review or other posts or comments you make about us, our products and services on any of our blogs, reviews or user community services will be shared with all other members of that service and the public at large.
