Multiple Jurisdictions

PlaceMeNet operates through multiple legal entities in different jurisdictions.

Data is processed in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including GDPR and, where applicable, UK GDPR.

The applicable legal entity, governing law, and jurisdiction are determined by the specific service page accessed by the user. Users must review the jurisdiction notice on each service page before proceeding.
