Watermarking and content protection signals
Monitoring for automated extraction, scraping, or unusual activity
These measures are used to protect the Platform and do not grant us access to your private device data. We only process information related to platform usage and security.

Payment processors to process transactions (we do not receive or store your full payment card details)
Legal or regulatory authorities if required by law, court order, or to protect rights and safety
Business transfers if we merge, acquire, or sell assets, in which case data may be transferred as part of the transaction
All service providers are required to protect your information and use it only to provide services to us.
We keep your information only as long as necessary to:
Provide the Platform
Maintain records for legal, tax, and accounting purposes
Enforce our Terms

When data is no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it where appropriate.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect your data, such as:

Depending on your location, you may have rights such as:
Access your personal data
Correct inaccurate data
Request deletion of your data
Object to certain processing
Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
Request a copy of your data (data portability)
We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling requests.
Your information may be processed in countries other than where you live, where data protection laws may differ. We take steps to ensure appropriate safeguards for transfers where required by law.
The Platform is not intended for individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us to remove it.
The Platform may contain links to third party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties. Please review their policies separately.
If you opt in to marketing emails, you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in the email or by contacting us.
We may still send service related messages (billing, security alerts, account notifications).
Some cookies are essential for the Platform to function. Others are optional and used for analytics or marketing. Where required by law, we will request consent before placing non essential cookies.
We may update this policy from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Continued use of the Platform after updates means you accept the updated policy.
