7292
7393Personal data collected by Xerox may be transferred to, stored and processed in your region, the United States, or any other country in which Xerox or its subsidiaries, affiliates, sub-contractors, agents or partners maintain facilities.

Sometimes we transfer personal data from the European Economic Area and Switzerland to other countries.

82101## EU-U.S. Privacy Shield
83102
84103**Commitment to Privacy Shield Principles**. Through November 2020, Xerox Corporation certified to the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Frameworks, both of which were established by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use and retention of personal data transferred from the European Union and Switzerland, respectively, to the United States. The EU-U.S. Privacy Shield was recently invalidated by the Court of Justice of the European Union ("EU Court"). The Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield remains in place, although for reasons similar to those cited by the EU Court, the Swiss DPA has opined that the U.S. does not provide an adequate level of protection for Swiss citizens. _For more explanation on the adequacy of the protection of personal data transferred from the EU and Switzerland to Xerox in the U.S., see below under the headings "Schrems II" and "Transparency Report."_
85104
86105In anticipation of further developments from EU and Swiss data protection authorities as to a new framework for transfer of personal data of EU data subjects from the EU to the U.S., Xerox continues to comply in practice with the Privacy Principles of the aforementioned Privacy Shield Frameworks. In some cases, we rely on the GDPR Standard Contractual Clauses which contain requirements that are comparable to the Privacy Principles.
