4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use Cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons, tags, and pixels) on our Site to power and improve our services, remember your actions and preferences, run analytics, and better understand how users interact with the Services.
Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default, but you can configure your browser controls to remove or reject cookies. Please keep in mind that removing or blocking cookies can negatively impact your experience and may cause some features or general functionality of the Services to work incorrectly or no longer be available.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control (GPC)
Our website recognizes the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If you visit our Site with GPC enabled, we will automatically treat this as a valid request to opt-out of the “sale” or “sharing” of information for that specific browser and device. Other than the Global Privacy Control, we do not recognize or alter our data collection practices when we receive “Do Not Track” signals from your web browser, as there is currently no uniform industry standard for DNT.
5. Children’s Privacy
Our Services are not intended for use by children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information about individuals under 13 (or under 18 depending on the jurisdiction). If you are the parent or guardian of a child who has provided us with their personal information, please contact us to request that it be deactivated and promptly deleted from our records.
6. Security and Retention of Your Information
We take reasonable precautions and implement standard administrative, technical, and physical security measures (such as SSL encryption and PCI DSS compliance for payment card information) to protect your personal information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, such as maintaining your account, providing Services, complying with legal obligations, resolving disputes, or enforcing applicable contracts.
