We may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide when you contact us, submit a message, send feedback, request support, subscribe to updates (if available), or otherwise communicate with us through the Website. This information may include your name, email address, and any details you choose to share in your message.
We also collect certain information automatically when you browse the Website. This may include your IP address, device type, browser type, operating system, referral source, pages visited, time spent on pages, and general usage patterns. This data helps us understand how the Website is used and improves performance, content, and user experience.
We may also use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about your browsing behavior. Cookies are small data files stored on your device that help remember preferences, analyze traffic, improve usability, and support advertising or analytics functions.

How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to operate and maintain the Website, improve our content, enhance the user experience, respond to messages and inquiries, provide customer support, send updates or newsletters where applicable, prevent fraud and abuse, monitor security, and comply with legal obligations. We may also use aggregated and anonymous data to analyze trends and improve the overall quality and performance of our services.
How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. However, we may share your information with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating the Website and delivering services, such as hosting providers, analytics services, email delivery platforms, and advertising networks (where applicable). These third parties are only permitted to use your data to perform services on our behalf and are required to protect it.
We may also disclose information if required by law or when we believe disclosure is necessary to comply with legal processes, enforce our policies, protect our rights or property, prevent fraud, or ensure the safety and security of our users and the public.

We retain information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, comply with legal requirements, resolve disputes, enforce policies, and maintain business records. When we no longer need the information, we take reasonable steps to delete it or anonymize it securely.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect the information we collect. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. While we work to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security, and you use the Website at your own risk.
