10. International Data Transfers
Wing Snob is based in the United States and primarily processes your personal information within the United States. However, some of our third-party service providers may be located in or have operations in other countries, which means your personal information may be transferred to, stored, or processed in countries outside of the United States.
Where such international transfers occur, we take appropriate steps to ensure that your personal information remains protected to an adequate standard, including by:
- Using third-party service providers that have certified their compliance with applicable data protection standards
- Implementing contractual safeguards with international partners, including standard contractual clauses or equivalent mechanisms
- Ensuring that recipient countries or organizations provide an adequate level of data protection

12. Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activities tracked.

We will continue to monitor developments in this area and update our practices accordingly as industry standards evolve.
