With respect to users in the European Economic Area (EEA), we do our best to ensure a similar degree of security of personal information as the EEA by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is in place:
We will only transfer personal data to countries that the European Commission have approved as providing an adequate level of protection for personal information; or
Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts, codes of conduct, or certification mechanisms approved by the European Commission which give personal information the same protection it has in Europe; or
For US-based providers that are part of EU-US Privacy Shield, we may transfer data to them, as they have equivalent safeguards in place.

In the event that individual personal information is acquired or is reasonably believed to have been acquired, by an unauthorized person and applicable law requires notification, Rangle will notify the applicable regulatory authority and the affected individual of the breach. Affected individuals will be contacted by email or, if Rangle is unable to contact the individual by email, then by mail. Notice will be given promptly, consistent with the legitimate needs of law enforcement and any measures necessary for Rangle or law enforcement to determine the scope of the breach and to assure or restore the integrity of the data system. Rangle may delay notification if Rangle or a law enforcement agency determines that the notification will impede a criminal investigation, unless and until Rangle or the agency determines that the notification will not compromise the investigation.
