8) Security
We use administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information. No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you believe your interaction with us is no longer secure, contact us at [email protected].
9) Children’s Privacy
Our services are not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required by local law). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided data to us, contact [email protected] and we will take appropriate steps.

If you access our services from outside the country where our servers or providers are located, your information may be transferred and processed in other jurisdictions. Where required, we take steps to provide appropriate safeguards.
