If we want to use your information for any other purpose, we will ask for your consent and use your information only when we receive your consent and then only for the purpose(s) for which consent will be granted, unless we are required by law to do otherwise.

Data Retention

Your personal information will be held for only so long as it is necessary for the purpose for which it was originally collected, and in accordance with applicable local law. We will retain your personal information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Policy. When assessing retention periods, we first examine whether it is necessary to retain the personal information collected and, if retention is required, work to retain the personal information for the shortest possible period permissible under applicable law.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of the personal information, the purposes for which we process the personal information, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

Our Use of Cookies and Related Technologies

When you visit the Site, the Company and third parties may store certain information on your browser, app, or device in the form of a "cookie" or similar file. The Site uses cookies and other technologies to (i) track advertising, (ii) collect traffic data from the Site, and (iii) improve the user experience when using the Site.
The user should be aware that, in order to browse the Site, it is not necessary for him or her to allow the installation of cookies sent by the Site. This may only be required in relation to certain services. Most browsers allow you to manage how cookies are set and used as you’re browsing, and to clear cookies and browsing data. Also, your browser may have settings letting you manage cookies on a site-by-site basis. Most mobile devices and applications allow you to manage how similar technologies, such as unique identifiers used to identify an app or device, are set and used. For example, the Advertising ID on Android devices or Apple’s Advertising Identifier can be managed in your device’s settings, while app-specific identifiers may typically be managed in the app’s settings.
● Cookies. Cookies are small text files containing a string of alphanumeric characters. We may use both session and persistent cookies. A session cookie disappears after you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains after you close your browser and may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to our Site. Please review your browser’s “Help” file to learn the proper way to modify your cookie settings. Please note that if you delete or choose not to accept cookies from the Service, you may not be able to utilize the features of the Service to their fullest potential. To learn more about cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
● Clear GIFs, pixel tags, and other technologies. Clear GIFs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on your computer’s hard drive, clear GIFs are embedded invisibly on web and app pages. We may use clear GIFs (a.k.a. web beacons, web bugs, or pixel tags) to among other things, track the activities of site visitors, help us manage content, and compile statistics about Service usage. A clear GIF can collect information such as: the IP address of the computer that downloaded the page on which the tag appears; the URL of the page on which the pixel tag appears; the time the page containing the pixel tag was viewed; the browser type and language; the device type; geographic location; and, the identification number of any cookie on the computer previously placed by that server. We and our third-party business partners may also use clear GIFs in HTML emails to our customers to help us track email response rates, identify when our emails are viewed, and track whether our emails are forwarded.
● Analytics. We may use Google Analytics and other analytics tools to collect information regarding visitor behavior and visitor demographics on our Site. For more information about Google Analytics, please visit www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners. You can opt out of Google’s collection and processing of data generated by your use of the Services by going to http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
● Interest-based advertising. We may set tracking tools (e.g., cookies, clear GIFs) provided by third-party advertising partners on our site to collect information regarding your activities on our site (e.g., your IP address, page(s) visited, time of day) for advertising purposes. We may also share such information with third-party advertising partners. These advertising partners may use this information (and similar information collected from other websites) for purposes of delivering targeted advertisements to you when you visit non-Site related websites. This practice is commonly referred to as “interest-based advertising” or “online behavioral advertising.” If you do not want interest-based advertising, you may be able to opt-out by visiting US-based https://thenai.org/opt-out/ and www.aboutads.info/choices/.

Data Security

We implement physical, technical, and organizational security measures designed to safeguard personal information. These measures are aimed to protect the personal information we collect from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Please be aware that despite our efforts, no data security measures can guarantee security.

Third-Party Links

Our Site may contain links to third-party websites. Any access to and use of such linked websites is not governed by this Policy but is instead governed by the privacy policies of those third-party websites. We are not responsible for the information practices of such third-party websites, and we encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you choose to visit.

Children's Privacy

At the Company, we recognize the importance of protecting the privacy of children. Our Service is not intended for children or minors under the age of sixteen years. Accordingly, we do not store information from minors under the age of sixteen years.

Before sending a verification response, please double-check the email address. If you receive an email that appears to be from us but is not from our verification email address listed above, do not respond. Any information we gather through this process will only be used for consumer verification, security procedures, or fraud prevention. We will delete any verification information as soon as practical after processing your request.

You may designate an authorized agent to exercise your rights under applicable laws on your behalf. Pursuant to applicable laws:
○ You must provide the authorized agent written permission to exercise your rights under applicable laws on your behalf.
