If data should be passed on to service providers in connection with commissioned data processing, these providers are bound by the FDPL, by other statutory regulations and contractually by Netbiscuits' own data protection policy. If we are obliged to do so by the law or by a court ruling, we will pass your data on to authorities entitled to receive the information.
