We take your privacy seriously. Please read this policy carefully to understand how we handle your personal information.

Disclaimer Regarding Third‑Party Data Handling: We are not responsible for how these providers collect, use, store, or protect data once in their possession. We disclaim liability for any loss, misuse, or unauthorized access by third parties.
We do not sell, trade, or rent your Personal Data to others for marketing purposes.
