This provision asserts that a single privacy policy governs data handling across all Garmin group entities worldwide; however, international data transfers, particularly from the EU/EEA to non-EEA countries, require specific legal transfer mechanisms under GDPR that a unilateral policy designation does not supply.
Interpretive note: The consumer-facing text does not identify the specific legal mechanisms supporting cross-border transfers, making it impossible to confirm GDPR Chapter V compliance from this text alone.
Under this clause, personal data may be processed by any Garmin group company globally, with the policy asserting uniform protection standards across entities. The specific legal mechanisms supporting cross-border transfers, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or Binding Corporate Rules, are not described in the consumer-facing text.
