We do not sell your personal data. We may share information only in the following situations:

• With Your Consent: We may disclose your information for a specific purpose with your explicit permission.
• Service Providers: We share data with trusted third-party vendors who perform services on our behalf (e.g., hosting, payment processing, data analysis, customer support). These partners are contractually bound to protect your data and use it only for the purposes we specify.
• For Legal Reasons: We may disclose information if we believe it is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, protect our rights, investigate fraud, or ensure the safety of our users.
• Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition, user information may be transferred as a business asset.
• Aggregated/Anonymized Data: We may share aggregated or de-identified information that cannot reasonably be used to identify you for analytical or marketing purposes.

5. Data Protection & Security

We implement a comprehensive suite of technical and organizational security measures designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

• Encryption: Data in transit is protected using TLS/SSL encryption. Sensitive data at rest is also encrypted.
• Access Controls: Strict internal access controls limit employee access to your data on a need-to-know basis.
• Secure Infrastructure: Our services are hosted on secure, industry-leading cloud platforms with robust physical and network security.
• Regular Audits: We regularly review our security practices and systems for potential vulnerabilities.

Despite our safeguards, no electronic transmission or storage method is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential.
