Your data is stored within a CRM database provided by Wild Apricot, a Canadian based company which uses servers operated by Amazon Web Services (AWS). These cloud servers may be located in a destination outside the EEA, but the hosts are committed to GDPR compliance. If you object to this transfer, storing or processing of your data, please contact us.
