In the event of a security incident that may affect the security of your Personal Data, we will promptly inform you and relevant regulatory authorities as required by applicable law, and take necessary remedial measures.
Data Retention
We will retain your Personal Data for the period necessary to provide you with services or fulfill other legitimate business purposes (such as fulfilling legal obligations, resolving disputes, ensuring security). The specific retention period will depend on various factors, including:

International Data Transfer
To support global operations, we and our partners may transfer, store, and process your Personal Data globally (including the EU, UK, and US). Where Personal Data is transferred to countries that are not recognized as providing an adequate level of protection, we implement appropriate safeguards such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) or Addendum, and, where applicable, participation in recognized adequacy frameworks (e.g., the EU–US Data Privacy Framework). Transfer impact assessments and copies of relevant safeguards are available upon request.
If required by applicable law, we will use legal mechanisms such as standard contractual clauses for cross-border data transfers to ensure appropriate protection.

Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 13 (or under 16 where required by the laws of your country/region, such as in the EEA and UK). We do not knowingly collect Personal Data from such children. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected Personal Data from a child without appropriate consent, we will promptly delete it in accordance with applicable law. Parents or legal guardians who believe their child has provided us with Personal Data may contact us at [email protected] to request review or deletion.
