But in some cases, Barid has chosen to process your Personal Data using IT tools and services that store and process Users' Personal Data. In all cases where we have not been able to rule out a risk that personal data may be disclosed to countries outside the United Arab Emirates, we have ensured that the relevant country has what is known as an adequate level of protection. We have also analysed which technical and organisational safeguards are appropriate to implement to protect the personal data in the event of disclosure. Exactly which protective measures have been implemented depends on what has been technically possible and considered sufficiently effective for the respective service.
