Protection of Minors’ Privacy
As we cannot determine whether the personal data collected belongs to minors or if consent has been obtained from legal guardians, minors should not provide personal data.

You acknowledge that third-party service providers to whom you disclose personal data may store such data outside your country of residence.

We will retain personal data only for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or as required by applicable law.
Information Security
We appreciate your trust in providing your personal data and are committed to implementing reasonable technical and organizational measures to safeguard it. We employ industry-recognized security measures to prevent unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.
Access to personal data is restricted to employees, contractors, and agents who require such access to perform their duties.
Despite our efforts, no modern technological environment is entirely free from security risks. Should any security breach occur that, after investigation, is deemed likely to materially harm your legitimate interests due to unauthorized access or disclosure, we shall notify you without undue delay and report the incident to the competent authority as required by law.
We strongly encourage you to adopt appropriate precautions when using the internet, such as using strong passwords, updating passwords regularly, and using secure browsers.
