Legal Basis for Processing (For EEA Visitors)

- You have given us permission to do so
- We need to perform a contract with you
- The processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your rights
- We need to comply with legal obligations
How We Share Your Information
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share your information in the following circumstances:
- Service Providers: We may share your information with third-party service providers who perform services on our behalf, such as website hosting, data analysis, email delivery, and customer service. These service providers are contractually obligated to use your information only as necessary to provide these services to us.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (such as a court or government agency), including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.
- Business Transfers: If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you via email or prominent notice on our Website of any change in ownership or use of your personal information.
- Protection of Rights: We may disclose information when we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person, violations of our Terms and Conditions, or as evidence in litigation.
- With Your Consent: We may share your information for any other purpose with your explicit consent.
Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical security measures designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any account credentials you may have related to our services and for restricting access to your device. You agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account.
Data Retention
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. When we no longer need your personal information, we will securely delete or anonymize it.
The specific retention periods depend on the nature of the information and why we need it. For example, we may retain information related to inquiries for a reasonable period to address follow-up questions, and we may retain certain information to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

Children's Privacy
Our Website is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without parental consent, we will take steps to delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately.
Third-Party Websites
Our Website may contain links to third-party websites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party's website.

We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites or services.
International Data Transfers
Your information may be transferred to and maintained on computers located outside of your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction where data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction. If you are located outside the United States and choose to provide information to us, please note that we transfer the information, including personal information, to the United States and process it there.
If we transfer personal information from the EEA to countries that have not been deemed to provide an adequate level of data protection, we will implement appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission.
Cookies Policy
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity on our Website and store certain information. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Website.

Do Not Track Signals
Some web browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. Currently, there is no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals, so we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals.
