- Contractual necessity, when processing is necessary to respond to a requested service or business relationship
- Legal obligations, when processing is required by applicable law
You may withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.
15. International Data Transfers
Pure Sugar Music operates from California in the United States. Our service providers may process information in the United States and other countries.
Privacy and data-protection laws in those locations may differ from the laws where you live. Where required, we and our service providers use appropriate measures for international transfers of personal information.
16. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical and organizational measures intended to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
However, no website, internet transmission or electronic-storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You provide information through the website at your own risk.
