Sharing of Your Information

We maintain strict confidentiality and do not share your personal details with external parties, except for trusted service providers who assist us in website operations, business activities, or service delivery. These partners are bound by confidentiality agreements. We may disclose information if legally required to comply with regulations, enforce our website policies, or protect our rights, property, or safety.

External Service Providers

Our external service providers only gather, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary for the services they provide to us. Certain providers, particularly payment gateways and processors, have their own privacy policies concerning transaction-related data. We advise reviewing their privacy policies to understand their data handling practices.

Note that some providers may be based in different jurisdictions, meaning your data may be subject to laws of those jurisdictions. For example, transactions processed by a US-based gateway may be subject to US legislation.

Once you navigate away from our website or are redirected to a third-party platform, our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service no longer apply. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external sites and recommend reviewing their privacy statements when visiting through links on our site.

Information Security Measures

We implement reasonable security measures and adhere to industry standards to protect your personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Payment information, such as credit card details, is encrypted using SSL technology and AES-256 encryption. While no online transmission or storage method is completely infallible, we comply with PCI-DSS requirements and employ additional industry-accepted security practices.

Collected information is processed at our facilities and data centers operated by our trusted third-party service providers. By providing your personal information, you consent to this processing, storage, and transfer. We ensure that your privacy rights are protected according to this policy when data is transferred or stored.
