We may share limited data with trusted service providers for technical, analytical, or operational purposes—always under secure and confidential conditions.
Some of your data may be processed or transferred internationally, with appropriate data protection safeguards in place.
While we use industry-standard security measures to protect your information, please note that no method of data transmission or electronic storage is completely secure. We encourage you to share personal information online with care.
