This information doesn't reveal your specific identity (like your name or contact info) but may include device and usage information, such as your IP address, browser and device characteristics, operating system, and how you use our Services. This helps us ensure security, operate our Services smoothly, and for internal reporting.

- To communicate with you.
- For security and fraud prevention.

- To save or protect an individual’s vital interest (e.g., to prevent harm).
3. What Legal Bases Do We Rely On To Process Your Information?
We process your personal information only when it’s necessary and we have a valid legal reason to do so under applicable law. This includes situations with your consent, to comply with laws, to fulfill contractual obligations, to protect your rights, or to fulfill our legitimate business interests.
If you are located in the EU or UK, this section applies to you:
Under GDPR and UK GDPR, we rely on the following legal bases:
- Consent: If you've given us permission for a specific purpose. You can withdraw this consent at any time.
- Legal Obligations: When necessary for compliance with legal duties (e.g., cooperating with law enforcement, defending legal rights).
- Vital Interests: To protect your vital interests or those of a third party (e.g., preventing threats to safety).
If you are located in Canada, this section applies to you:
We may process your information with your specific permission (express consent) or where permission can be inferred (implied consent). You can withdraw your consent at any time.
In exceptional cases, we may process information without your consent, for example:
- If collection is clearly in an individual's interest and consent can't be obtained promptly.
- For investigations and fraud detection/prevention.
- For business transactions under certain conditions.
- If necessary to assess an insurance claim.
- For identifying injured, ill, or deceased persons and communicating with next of kin.
- If we reasonably believe an individual may be a victim of financial abuse.
- If collection without consent is necessary to investigate a breach of agreement or law.
- If disclosure is required by subpoena, warrant, or court order.
- If produced by an individual in their employment/business/profession.
- Solely for journalistic, artistic, or literary purposes.
- If the information is publicly available and specified by regulations.
5. What Is Our Stance On Third-Party Websites?
Our Services may link to third-party websites, online services, or mobile applications, or contain advertisements from third parties not affiliated with us. We are not responsible for the safety of any information you share with these third parties.
We do not guarantee any such third parties and are not liable for any loss or damage caused by their use. The inclusion of a link does not imply endorsement. We cannot guarantee the safety and privacy of data you provide to any third-party websites, as their data collection is not covered by this Privacy Notice. Always review their policies and contact them directly with questions.
6. How Long Do We Keep Your Information?
We keep your information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Notice, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law (e.g., for tax or legal compliance).
When we no longer have a legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will delete or anonymize it. If this isn't possible (e.g., if it's in backup archives), we will securely store your information and isolate it from further processing until deletion is possible.
7. How Do We Keep Your Information Safe?
We strive to protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical security measures. We have implemented appropriate and reasonable measures to safeguard the information we process.
However, despite our best efforts, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. We cannot promise or guarantee that unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security. While we do our best, transmitting personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. Please ensure you always access our Services within a secure environment.
8. What Are Your Privacy Rights?
Depending on your state or country of residence (e.g., US states like California, EEA, UK, Switzerland, Canada), you may have rights that give you greater access to and control over your personal information. These rights may include:
- The right to request access to and obtain a copy of your personal information.
- The right to request rectification (correction) or erasure (deletion) of your personal information.
- The right to restrict the processing of your personal information.
- The right to data portability (if applicable).
- The right not to be subject to automated decision-making.
- In certain circumstances, the right to object to the processing of your personal information.
You can make such a request by contacting us using the contact details provided in the section "How Can You Contact Us About This Notice?" below. We will handle your request in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
Withdrawing your consent: If we rely on your consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw it at any time. This won't affect processing done before your withdrawal or processing based on other legal grounds. You can withdraw consent by contacting us.
9. Controls For Do-Not-Track Features
Many web browsers and mobile operating systems include a "Do-Not-Track" (DNT) feature. Currently, there isn't a finalized uniform technical standard for DNT signals. Therefore, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online.
If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will update this Privacy Notice. California law requires us to state this: we do not respond to DNT signals at this time.
10. Do United States Residents Have Specific Privacy Rights?
