How other platforms handle this
We rely on Standard Contractual Clauses ("SCCs") for the transfer of personal data...to countries that have not received an applicable adequacy decision, as well as the UK's International Data Transfer Addendum to the SCCs.
When we transfer your information outside the country where it was collected, we rely on appropriate legal mechanisms...These measures include model contractual clauses (such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses)...
If you are in the UK, when we send your Personal Data to any other Shopify entity outside of the UK, EEA or Switzerland, it is transferred pursuant to Standard Contractual Clauses in place between Shopify entities.
