In addition, data transmitted over the Internet can be sent across borders, including to countries with less stringent data protection requirements than those in Europe, even if the sender and recipient are both located in Europe. WPNinja’s assumes no liability for direct or indirect damage stemming from data transmission between website visitors and WPNinja’s. However, WPNinja’s has taken security measures that protect the data from unauthorised access and safeguard the authenticity of the website, the integrity of the data and the confidentiality of the data. Only those employees who need the required information have access to your personal data. They are obligated to guarantee the confidentiality of the data.
