Data security

We take appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against loss, theft, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, and destruction.

Data retention

We keep your personal information for as long as necessary to provide the Service and complete the transactions you have requested, as well as for other critical purposes such as complying with our legal obligations, keeping business and financial records, resolving disputes, maintaining security, detecting and preventing fraud and abuse, and enforcing our agreements.

Grounds for processing

  • When appropriate, with your permission; and/or
  • When it's required to run our company, safeguard the security of our users, clients, and systems, identify or stop fraud, or pursue any of our other justifiable interests as outlined in the preceding sections—unless your right to privacy outweighs our interests.

If we handle your personal information based on your consent, you have the right to change your mind at any time, and if we process your information based on our legitimate interests, you might be able to object to our processing.

Update privacy policy

This privacy statement may be updated from time to time. Any modifications will be announced with an updated revision date on this page. We will notify you via the Service or another method if we make any significant changes.
