5. Data Transfers¶
Adminflow may transfer personal data to countries outside the EEA, provided that such transfers comply with GDPR requirements. Appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), will be in place to ensure the protection of personal data during these transfers.
6. Security Measures¶
Adminflow has implemented robust technical and organizational security measures, including:
- Encryption: All personal data is encrypted both in transit and at rest.

- Provide the Controller with all necessary information to fulfill its obligations under GDPR, including steps taken to mitigate the impact of the breach.
8. Deletion or Return of Data¶
Upon termination of the agreement, Adminflow will either delete or return all personal data to the Controller, as requested. Any existing copies of the data will also be deleted unless storage is required by law.
