We may also use analytics and advertising technologies provided by third parties. These providers may collect information about your interaction with our website in accordance with their own privacy practices.
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Depending on your location, you may also be provided with additional cookie or consent controls when visiting the website.
Some browsers and devices provide privacy preference signals, including “Do Not Track” or similar mechanisms. Our website may not respond to every such signal. Where applicable law requires us to recognize a particular privacy preference or opt-out signal, we will endeavor to comply with that requirement.
Third-party services used on our website may also collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites, subject to their own privacy practices and your available privacy choices.

We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to professional advisers such as accountants, attorneys, insurers, or other professional service providers, or when disclosure is required by law, legal process, or a governmental authority.
If our business or substantially all of its assets are sold, transferred, merged, or reorganized, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
7. Third-Party Links
Our website may contain links to websites, platforms, applications, products, or services operated by third parties.

Privacy and data protection laws in those countries may differ from the laws where you live. Where required by applicable law, appropriate safeguards will be used in connection with international transfers of personal information.
9. Data Security
We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, misuse, or loss.
However, no website, electronic transmission, or method of storing information can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Access to personal information is limited to those who reasonably need the information to operate our business or provide services on our behalf.
If we become aware of a data breach that requires notification under applicable law, we will provide the required notifications.
10. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including providing products or services, maintaining appropriate business and transaction records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and satisfying applicable legal, accounting, reporting, and tax requirements.
Different types of information may be subject to different retention periods.
When personal information is no longer reasonably necessary, we may delete, securely dispose of, or anonymize it, subject to applicable legal requirements.
