 ## International Privacy Practices
 Our Site is primarily operated and managed on servers located and operated within the United States.

We are committed to protecting Personal Data when it is transferred. If you reside or are located within the EEA, United Kingdom, Switzerland (or other region that offers similar protections) and such data transfers occur, we take appropriate steps to ensure an equivalent level of protection for your Personal Data. We participate in and commit to adhering to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, the UK extension to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, or the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework when transferring data from the EEA, UK or Switzerland to the United States.
