Personal data we collect through our services may include information requested from time to time, such as names, email addresses, addresses, phone numbers, IP addresses, and more. When we combine personal and non-personal data, they are treated as personal data as long as they remain in combination.

Cookies and Similar Technologies
When you visit or access our services, we authorize third parties to use web beacons, cookies, pixel tags, scripts, as well as other technologies and analytical services ("tracking technologies"). These tracking technologies may allow third parties to automatically collect your data to enhance the navigation experience on our digital assets, optimize their performance, ensure a tailored user experience, and for security and fraud prevention purposes.

We may provide advertisements through our services and digital assets (including websites and applications that use our services) that may be tailored to you, based on your recent browsing behavior on websites, devices, or browsers.

Where do we store the data?
on-personal data
Please note that our companies, as well as our trusted partners and service providers, are located worldwide. For the purposes explained in this Privacy Policy, we store and process all non-personal data we collect in different jurisdictions.
Personal data
Personal data may be maintained, processed, and stored in the United States, Ireland, South Korea, Taiwan, Israel, and, as required for the proper provision of our services and/or legally mandated (as further explained below), in other jurisdictions.
How long is the data retained? Please note that we retain the collected data as long as necessary for the provision of our services, compliance with our legal and contractual obligations towards you, dispute resolution, and enforcement of our agreements.
We may correct, supplement, or delete incorrect or incomplete data at our discretion at any time.
How do we protect the data? The hosting service for our digital assets provides us with the online platform through which we can offer you our services. Your data may be stored on secure servers behind a firewall and provides secure HTTPS access to most areas of its services.
Despite the measures and efforts taken by us and our hosting provider, we cannot and will not guarantee absolute protection and absolute security of the data you upload, post, or otherwise provide to us or others.
For this reason, we ask you to set secure passwords and, if possible, not to send us or others confidential information that you believe could cause you significant or sustained damage if disclosed. Since email and instant messaging are not considered secure forms of communication, we also ask you not to disclose confidential information via any of these communication channels.
How do we handle minors?
The services are not intended for users who have not yet reached the legal age of majority. We will not knowingly collect data from children. If you are not of legal age, you should not download or use the services and should not provide us with any information.
We reserve the right to request age verification at any time to verify whether minors are using our services. In the event that we become aware that a minor is using our services, we may prohibit access to our services, block the minor's access, and delete all data stored about this user. If you have reason to believe that a minor has provided data to us, please contact us as explained below.
We use your personal data only for the purposes set out in the privacy policy and only when we are convinced that:
the use of your personal data is necessary to fulfill or conclude a contract (e.g., to provide you with the services themselves or customer support or technical support);
the use of your personal data is necessary to comply with relevant legal or regulatory obligations, or
the use of your personal data is necessary to support our legitimate business interests (provided that this is done at all times in a way that is proportionate and respects your privacy rights).
As an EU resident, you can:
request confirmation of whether personal data concerning you is being processed, and access your stored personal data and certain additional information;
request the receipt of personal data you provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format;
request the correction of your personal data stored by us;
request the deletion of your personal data;
object to the processing of your personal data by us;
request the restriction of the processing of your personal data, or
file a complaint with a supervisory authority.
Please note, however, that these rights are not unlimited and may be subject to our own legitimate interests and regulatory requirements. If you have general questions about the personal data we collect and its use, please contact us as indicated below.
In providing the services, we may transfer data across borders to affiliated companies or other third parties and from your country/jurisdiction to other countries/jurisdictions worldwide. By using the services, you consent to the transfer of your data outside the EEA.
If you are a resident of the EEA, your personal data will only be transferred to locations outside the EEA if we are convinced that there is an adequate or comparable level of protection for personal data. We will take appropriate steps to ensure that we have appropriate contractual agreements with our third parties to ensure that appropriate security measures are in place, minimizing the risk of unauthorized use, alteration, deletion, loss, or theft of your personal data, and that these third parties act at all times in accordance with applicable laws.
Rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act
If you use the services as a resident of California, you may be entitled to request access to and deletion of your data under the California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA").
