Cedar Parties will use your e-mail address(es) in accordance with the Site Terms and Conditions.

We treat your personal information with care and do not sell it to other organizations for marketing purposes in exchange for monetary consideration.

To deliver services to you, it is sometimes necessary for us to share your personal information outside the European Economic Area (EEA), e.g.:
These transfers are subject to special rules under European and UK data protection law.
Certain countries and territories outside the EEA have been assessed by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of protection for personal information (for example, Andorra, Argentina, Canada (commercial organizations), Faroe Islands, Guernsey, Israel, Isle of Man, Japan, Jersey, New Zealand, the Republic of Korea, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and Uruguay). Adequacy decisions may be added, amended, or withdrawn over time; a current list is maintained by the European Commission and may be found here: GDPR Adequacy Decisions.
Except for the countries and territories assessed as adequate, other countries outside the EEA and the United Kingdom may not provide the same level of protection for personal information as the laws of the EEA and the UK. When we transfer your personal information to such countries, we will ensure the transfer is subject to appropriate safeguards as required by applicable data protection law.
For transfers of personal information from the European Economic Area, we rely on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) adopted under Article 46 of the EU GDPR, available at
For transfers from the United Kingdom, we rely on the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) or the UK Addendum to the EU SCCs issued by the UK Information Commissioner’s Office, available at
Where the destination country has been recognized as providing an adequate level of protection by the European Commission or the UK Secretary of State, we may rely on the relevant adequacy decision. Where required, we supplement these transfer mechanisms with additional technical, organizational, and contractual safeguards, and we assess the circumstances of the transfer (including the laws and practices of the destination country) to help ensure your personal information receives a level of protection essentially equivalent to that guaranteed within the EEA and the UK. You may request a copy of the relevant safeguards by contacting us using the details in the “How to Contact Us” section below.
| Right to Access | The right to be provided with a copy of your personal information (the right of access) |
| Right to Rectification | The right to require us to correct any mistakes in your personal information |
| Right to be Forgotten | The right to require us to delete your personal information—in certain situations |

| Right to Data Portability | The right to receive the personal information you provided to us, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and/or transmit that data to a third party—in certain situations |
| Right to Object | The right to object: At any time to your personal information being processed for direct marketing (including profiling); in certain other situations to our continued processing of your personal information, e.g. processing carried out for the purpose of our legitimate interests. |
| Right Not to be Subject to Automated Individual Decision-Making | The right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing (including profiling) that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you |
For further information on each of those rights, including the circumstances in which they apply, see the guidance from the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) on individual rights under the General Data Protection Regulation.

To exercise this right, please use the methods described in the “How to Exercise Your Rights” section below.
We have appropriate security measures in place to prevent personal information from being accidentally lost or used or accessed in an unauthorized way. We limit access to your personal information to those who have a genuine business need to access it. Those processing your information will do so only in an authorized manner and are subject to a duty of confidentiality. We also have procedures in place to deal with any suspected data security breach. Where we are legally required to do so, we will notify the applicable supervisory authority or regulator of a personal data breach without undue delay and, where feasible, within 72 hours of becoming aware of it. Where a breach is likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify affected individuals without undue delay and in accordance with applicable law.
In the event of a data breach, we will inform you of the nature of the breach, the types of data affected, the steps we have taken to mitigate the breach, and any measures you can take to protect yourself. We continuously monitor our systems for potential vulnerabilities and attacks and regularly review our security practices to enhance the protection of your personal information. We use reasonable technical and organizational measures, including encryption in transit and, where appropriate, at rest, designed to protect your personal information during transmission and storage.
If you would like to exercise any of your rights as described in this Privacy Policy, please:
Please note that you may only make CCPA-related data access or data portability disclosure request twice within a 12-month period.
