We process your personal data on the following legal bases:

Legal Obligations
We may disclose your data if required by law, regulation, or valid legal process.
8. International Data Transfers
Your data may be processed on servers located outside the European Economic Area (EEA), including in the United States (where Supabase and Google operate). When data is transferred outside the EEA, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission, to protect your personal data in accordance with GDPR requirements.
