This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and disclose personal information when you use our services. We adhere to the principles of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) to ensure the fair and lawful processing of personal data.

By accessing and using the Website and Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by the terms of this Policy. This Policy does not apply to the practices of companies that we do not own or control, or to individuals that we do not employ or manage.

Privacy of children

We do not knowingly collect any Personal Information from children under the age of 18. If you are under the age of 18, please do not submit any Personal Information through the Website and Services.

We encourage parents and legal guardians to monitor their children's Internet usage and to help enforce this Policy by instructing their children never to provide Personal Information through the Website and Services without their permission. We also ask that all parents and legal guardians overseeing the care of children take the necessary precautions to ensure that their children are instructed to never give out Personal Information when online without their permission.

We may use the personal information we collect for the following purposes:

  • To provide and maintain our services: We use your information to deliver the services you request, process transactions, and provide customer support.
  • To communicate with you and respond to your inquiries: We may use your contact information to send you important updates, and notifications, and respond to your questions or requests.

Data Retention

We will retain your personal information 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 determining the appropriate retention period, we consider the nature and sensitivity of the information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process the information, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means.

Data Security

We take the security of your personal information seriously and implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect it. We use industry-standard security technologies and procedures to safeguard your data from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

Your Rights

You have certain rights regarding your personal information under the GDPR. These rights include:

  • The right to access: You have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you.
  • The right to rectification: You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete information we hold about you.
  • The right to erasure: You have the right to request the deletion of your personal information in certain circumstances, such as when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.
  • The right to restrict processing: You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal information in certain circumstances, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data or when the processing is unlawful.
  • The right to data portability: You have the right to receive a copy of your personal information in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format and to transmit that data to another data controller.
  • The right to object: You have the right to object to the processing of your personal information in certain circumstances, such as when we are processing your data for direct marketing purposes.

How to exercise your rights

Any requests to exercise your rights can be directed to us through the contact details provided in this document. Please note that we may ask you to verify your identity before responding to such requests. Your request must provide sufficient information that allows us to verify that you are the person you are claiming to be or that you are the authorized representative of such a person. If we receive your request from an authorized representative, we may request evidence that you have provided such an authorized representative with power of attorney or that the authorized representative otherwise has valid written authority to submit requests on your behalf.

Response Timing and Format

We aim to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of receiving it. If we need more time (up to 90 days), we will notify you in writing, explaining the reason for the extension. If you have an account with us, we will send our written response to that account. If you do not have an account, you can choose to receive our written response by mail or electronically. The disclosures we provide will only cover the 12 months before the receipt of the verifiable consumer request. If applicable, our response will also include an explanation of the reasons why we cannot comply with a request. For data portability requests, we will select a format that allows for easy use and transmission of your personal information between entities.
