What data do we collect?
Below you will find an overview of the data we may collect:
De-identified and non-identifiable information you provide during the registration process or that is collected through your use of our services ("Non-Personal Information"). Non-Personal Information does not identify who collected it. Non-Personal Information that we collect consists primarily of technical and aggregated usage information.
Individually identifiable information, which means anything that can be used to identify you or could reasonably be used to identify you ("Personal Information"). The Personal Information 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 Information with Non-Personal Information, we will treat it as Personal Information as long as it remains in combination.

Who we share the data with
We may share your information with our service providers to operate our Services (e.g., storing data on third-party hosting services, providing technical support, etc.).
We may also disclose your information in the following circumstances: (i) to investigate, detect, prevent, or take action against illegal activities or other wrongdoing; (ii) to establish or exercise our rights of defense; (iii) to protect our rights, property, or personal safety, or the safety of our users or the public; (iv) in the event of a change of control of us or one of our affiliates (through a merger, acquisition, or purchase of (substantially) all assets, or otherwise); (v) to collect, retain, and/or manage your information through authorized third parties (e.g., cloud service providers) as appropriate for business purposes; (vi) to work with third parties to improve your user experience.

Cookies and similar technologies
When you visit or access our Services, we authorize third parties to use web beacons, cookies, pixel tags, scripts, and other technologies and analytics services ("Tracking Technologies"). These Tracking Technologies may enable third parties to automatically collect your information to improve the browsing experience on our digital assets, optimize their performance, provide a customized user experience, and for security and fraud prevention purposes.

We will not share your email address or other personal information with any advertising companies or advertising networks without your consent.
Where the data is stored
Non-personal data
Please note that our companies, as well as our trusted partners and service providers, are located around the world. For the purposes explained in this Privacy Policy, we store and process any non-personal information 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 necessary for the proper provision of our Services and/or as required by law (as further explained below), in other jurisdictions.
How long the data is retained
Please note that we retain the information we collect for as long as necessary to provide our services, comply with our legal and contractual obligations to you, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
We may correct, supplement or delete inaccurate or incomplete data at any time at our own discretion.
How we protect the data
The hosting service for our digital assets provides us with the online platform through which we can provide our services to you. Your data may be stored through our hosting provider's data storage, databases and general applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall and they provide secure HTTPS access to most areas of their services.
Despite the measures and efforts taken by us and our hosting provider, we cannot and do not guarantee absolute protection and security of any information you upload, post or otherwise transmit to us or others.
For this reason, we ask you to use strong passwords and, if possible, not to send us or others any confidential information that you believe could cause you significant or lasting harm if disclosed. In addition, because email and instant messaging are not considered secure forms of communication, we ask that you do not send any confidential information through any of these communication channels.
How we deal with minors
The Services are not intended for users under the age of legal majority. We will not knowingly collect information from children. If you are under the age of majority, you should not download or use the Services or provide any information to us.
We reserve the right to request proof of age at any time to verify that minors are not using our Services. In the event that we become aware that a minor is using our Services, we may deny and block that user's access to our Services and we may delete any data we have about that user. If you have reason to believe that a minor has provided information to us, please contact us as explained below.
Updates or changes to the privacy policy
We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time at our sole discretion, and the version posted on the Site will always be the most current (see "Effective Date" notice). We encourage you to check this Privacy Policy periodically for changes. If any changes are material, we will post a notice on our Site. Your continued use of the Services after we have posted notice of changes on our Site will constitute your acknowledgement and consent to the changes to the Privacy Policy and your agreement to be bound by the terms of those changes.
