Where the data will be stored

Please note that we retain the collected data for as long as necessary to provide our services, comply with our legal and contractual obligations to you, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

We may correct, supplement, or delete inaccurate or incomplete data at our discretion at any time.

How we protect the data

The hosting service for our digital assets provides us with the online platform through which we offer our services to you. Your data may be stored through our hosting provider’s data storage, databases, and general applications. It is stored on secure servers behind a firewall, and the provider offers secure HTTPS access to most areas of its services.

Despite the measures and efforts taken by us and our hosting provider, we cannot and do not guarantee absolute protection or security of the data you upload, publish, or otherwise share with us or others.

For this reason, we encourage you to set strong passwords and, whenever possible, avoid sharing confidential information with us or others if its disclosure could cause you significant or lasting harm. Additionally, as email and instant messaging are not considered secure communication methods, we advise against sharing confidential information through these channels.

How we handle minors

Our services are not intended for users who have not yet reached the legal age of majority. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you are underage, you should not download or use our services or provide us with any information.

We reserve the right to request proof of age at any time to verify whether minors are using our services. If we become aware that a minor is using our services, we may deny and restrict their access and delete any data stored about them. If you believe that a minor has provided us with data, please contact us as outlined below.

We use your personal data only for the purposes outlined in this privacy policy and only when we are convinced that:

the use of your personal data is necessary to fulfill or enter into a contract (e.g., to provide you with the services themselves or to offer customer support or technical assistance);
the use of your personal data is necessary to comply with applicable legal or regulatory obligations, or
the use of your personal data is necessary to support our legitimate business interests (provided that this is done in a manner that is proportionate and respects your privacy rights at all times).

request confirmation as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed, and request access to your stored personal data along with certain additional information;

As part of providing our services, we may transfer data across borders to affiliated companies or other third parties, from your country/jurisdiction to other countries/jurisdictions worldwide. By using our services, you consent to the transfer of your data outside the EEA.

If you are located in the EEA, your personal data will only be transferred to locations outside the EEA if we believe that an adequate or comparable level of personal data protection exists. We will take appropriate steps to ensure that we have suitable contractual agreements with our third parties, guaranteeing that proper security measures are in place to minimize the risk of unlawful use, modification, deletion, loss, or theft of your personal data and that these third parties always act in compliance with applicable laws.
