Recipients

We do not disclose data to third parties except where required by law or necessary for the client’s defence (courts, court agents, notaries). We use processors acting on the firm’s behalf under a data processing agreement: Microsoft (email and storage) and IONOS (web hosting). Microsoft may process data outside the European Economic Area with the safeguards of the EU–US Data Privacy Framework and the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.
