International Data Transfers

Your personal data may be accessed from our main office in Israel. Transfers of personal data from EU/EEA/UK are covered by the European Commission’s Adequacy Decision regarding Israel.

Your personal data may be transferred between Immunai and its subsidiaries (known as ‘the Immunai group’). Transfers within the Immunai group will be covered by an internal processing agreement entered into by members of the Immunai group (an intra-group agreement) which contractually obliges each member to ensure that Personal Data receives an adequate and consistent level of protection wherever it is transferred to. 

If you are a European resident and we transfer your Personal Data outside of EU/EEA/UK (for example to third parties who provide us with services), we will obtain contractual commitments from them to protect your Personal Data. Immunai uses standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission and the UK equivalent where relevant to transfer personal data from the EU/EEA/UK to countries that do not have an adequacy decision from the European Commission.

  • The right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority (i.e., your place of habitual residence, place or work or place of alleged infringement) at any time or before the relevant institutions in your place of residence.
