Comment (by masteradhoc):
Based on the feedback of @vikingtechguy I adjusted the string further to
also clarify which persons are protected under the transfer rules. The
original "European residents" wording is legally imprecise — GDPR Article
3 is based on being in the EU/EEA at the time of data collection, not
residency or citizenship. The updated text reflects this correctly and
also adds EEA alongside EU.
