By accessing or using the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the collection, storage, use, and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Platform immediately.

2. What Data We Collect

3. How We Use Your Data

4. Sharing Data with Third Parties

We do not sell your personal data. We may share information in the following limited circumstances:

• Service Providers: With trusted vendors who perform services for us (e.g., hosting, payment processing, analytics, customer support, email delivery), under strict confidentiality agreements.

5. Data Protection and Security

We implement robust technical and organizational measures designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These include encryption (SSL/TLS) for data in transit, secure server infrastructure, access controls, and regular security assessments.

Despite our efforts, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. We encourage you to use a strong password, enable two-factor authentication if available, and be cautious about the information you share publicly on your profile.
