Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We may also use local storage and similar technologies. We generally use these tools for essential functions, preferences, and to understand how the Service performs.
- Strictly necessary cookies: required for core functionality such as session management and security.
- Preference cookies: remember settings such as language or cookie consent.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings, including deleting existing cookies and blocking new ones. Note that blocking certain cookies may affect the Service’s functionality. Our footer shows a cookie consent banner on first visit where you can set your preferences.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in limited circumstances, such as:
- Service providers: vendors who help operate the Service (e.g., hosting, email delivery, payment processing, analytics). They are permitted to process information only for the services they provide to us.
- Legal and safety: if required by law, court order, or to protect rights, safety, and security of users, the public, and our Service.

Data retention
We keep personal information for as long as necessary to provide the Service, fulfill the purposes described in this policy, comply with legal obligations (such as recordkeeping), resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods vary depending on the type of data, how it is used, and applicable legal requirements.
Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, and alteration. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children’s privacy
The Service is not intended for children under 13 (or the minimum age required by applicable law). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.
