Respond to inquiries and provide support;
Analyze traffic and usage patterns (including through analytics partners);
Serve and measure advertising where enabled (including through Google AdSense);
Protect the security and integrity of the Site, detect abuse, and comply with legal obligations.

4. Cookies and similar technologies

We and our partners use cookies, pixels, local storage, and similar technologies for essential functions (for example, session and security), analytics, and advertising. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may limit Site functionality.

5. Google Analytics

We may use Google Analytics or similar services to understand how visitors use the Site. These services use cookies and may collect information such as how often users visit, which pages they view, and what other sites they visited before coming to the Site. For more on how Google uses data, see Google’s Privacy & Terms and Google’s Privacy Policy. You can opt out of Google Analytics using Google’s browser add-on where available.

6. Advertising and Google AdSense

We may use Google AdSense (or other advertising partners) to display ads on the Site. AdSense uses cookies and other technologies to:

Show personalized or non-personalized ads based on your visits to our Site and other sites;
Measure ad performance and limit how often you see an ad;
Detect fraud and abuse.

Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to our Site and/or other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info (US). In the EEA and UK, you can manage preferences through consent tools we may display where required.

For more information on how Google uses data when you use our Site, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

7. Sharing of information

We may share information with:

Service providers who assist with hosting, analytics, email, security, and advertising, subject to confidentiality and processing terms;
Advertising and analytics partners (such as Google) as described in this policy;
Authorities when required by law, legal process, or to protect rights, safety, and security.

We do not sell your personal information for monetary consideration in the traditional sense. Where “sale” or “sharing” is defined broadly under applicable law (for example, California), we describe your choices in Section 9.

8. Data retention and security

We retain information only as long as necessary for the purposes described above, unless a longer period is required by law. We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information; however, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

9. Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal information, or to object to certain processing or to data portability. Residents of the European Economic Area, UK, and Switzerland may have rights under GDPR. California residents may have rights under the CCPA/CPRA (including knowing what personal information is collected, requesting deletion, and opting out of “sale” or “sharing” for cross-context behavioral advertising, where applicable).

To exercise rights, contact us via the contact page. We may need to verify your request. You may also use an authorized agent where permitted by law.
