5. International Data Transfers
Your personal data is primarily processed within the European Economic Area (EEA). Where a service provider processes technical request data outside the EEA, including requests for Google-hosted reviewer avatars and Google Analytics if you allow it, we require an applicable safeguard, such as:

- Technical request logs: Retained by the relevant hosting or media provider only for its documented security and service-delivery period
- Legal and compliance records: Retained for the period required by Spanish law (typically 5 to 10 years for tax and anti-money laundering purposes)
