This is simply demonstrated by the European Parliament&#8217;s website which does not rely on such services.<br \/>\nb) The transfer of personal data (i.e. user IP address) to Cloudflare and Google is possibly a transfer of data to servers outside the EU located in third countries which do not satisfy the conditions established by the GDPR.<\/p>\n<p>I therefore request you to cease using Cloudflare.
