They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaigns. These cookies are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator’s permission. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organizations such as advertisers.

9. Data Security
The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

10. Data Retention
We will retain your Personal Data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your Personal Data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.

11. Your Data Protection Rights
Depending on your location and applicable data protection laws, you may have certain rights regarding your Personal Data. We respect your privacy rights and provide you with reasonable access to the Personal Data that you may have provided through your use of the Services. Users in certain regions, including the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom (UK), and California, have specific rights under GDPR, UK GDPR, and CCPA/CPRA, respectively.
We will handle requests in accordance with applicable data protection laws. You may be required to verify your identity before we can respond to your request.
Below is a summary of common rights, which may vary based on your location:
11.1. Rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR (for users in the EU/EEA and UK):
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the UK, you have the following data protection rights:
- The Right to Access: You have the right to request copies of your Personal Data.
- The Right to Rectification: You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate or complete information you believe is incomplete.
- The Right to Erasure (“Right to be Forgotten”): You have the right to request that we erase your Personal Data, under certain conditions.
- The Right to Restrict Processing: You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your Personal Data, under certain conditions.
- The Right to Object to Processing: You have the right to object to our processing of your Personal Data, under certain conditions (e.g., processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing).
- The Right to Data Portability: You have the right to request that we transfer the data that we have collected to another organization, or directly to you, under certain conditions.
- The Right to Withdraw Consent: Where we rely on your consent to process your Personal Data, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent.
- The Right to Lodge a Complaint: You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority about our collection and use of your Personal Data. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority in the EEA or the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) in the UK.
11.2. Rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) & California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) (for California Residents):
If you are a California resident, you have specific rights regarding your Personal Information:
- Right to Know: You have the right to request that we disclose what Personal Information we collect, use, disclose, and sell or share about you. This includes:
- The categories of Personal Information collected.
- The categories of sources from which Personal Information is collected.
- The business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling, or sharing Personal Information.
- The categories of third parties to whom we disclose Personal Information.
- The specific pieces of Personal Information collected about you.
- Categories of Personal Information sold or shared, and categories of third parties to whom the PI was sold or shared.
- Categories of Personal Information disclosed for a business purpose, and categories of persons to whom it was disclosed.
- Right to Delete: You have the right to request the deletion of your Personal Information that we have collected from you, subject to certain exceptions.
- Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing: You have the right to opt-out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your Personal Information. Under the CCPA/CPRA, “sale” can broadly include sharing for monetary or other valuable consideration, and “sharing” can include tailoring advertising to you based on Personal Information obtained across different businesses. Based on our current practices described above (primarily using service providers for operational functions and analytics), we do not believe we engage in activities that constitute “Sale” or “Sharing” as defined by CCPA/CPRA for purposes like cross-context behavioral advertising without providing you with notice and an option to opt-out where required. However, it is crucial for you to assess your ongoing use of third-party services (especially marketing/analytics tools) to confirm this. Should our practices change and involve such activities, we will provide a clear “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link or button on the Website.
- Right to Limit Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information (SPI): While we primarily collect basic personal and service information (not typically considered SPI like health or financial account numbers with credentials), if we were to collect SPI, you would have the right to limit its use and disclosure for purposes other than those necessary to perform the services requested.
- Right to Correct: You have the right to request the correction of inaccurate Personal Information we maintain about you.
- Right to Non-Discrimination: You have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment for exercising your CCPA/CPRA rights. We will not deny you goods or services, charge you different prices, or provide a different level or quality of goods or services solely because you exercised your CCPA/CPRA rights.
11.3. Rights under Other US State Privacy Laws (e.g., VCDPA – Virginia, CPA – Colorado, UCPA – Utah, CTDPA – Connecticut):
If you are a resident of other US states with comprehensive privacy laws, you may have similar rights, though terminology and specific details may differ. These commonly include:
- The right to access your personal data.
- The right to delete personal data provided by or obtained about you.
- The right correct inaccuracies in your personal data.
- The right to opt-out of the processing of personal data for purposes of:
- Targeted advertising.
- The sale of personal data.
- Profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning you.
- The right to data portability.
We aim to accommodate these rights where applicable.
11.4. How to Exercise Your Rights:
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the contact information provided in Section 2. Please clearly state which right you wish to exercise and provide sufficient information to allow us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Data or an authorized representative. We will respond to your request within the timeframe required by applicable law (e.g., typically 30 days for GDPR/UK GDPR, 45 days for CCPA/CPRA, with potential extensions).
12. Children’s Privacy
Our Service is not intended for individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with Personal Data, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected Personal Data from children without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers. Depending on applicable law (e.g., CCPA/CPRA), the age threshold may vary (e.g., 16 for opt-out rights from sale/sharing). We strive to comply with relevant regulations regarding children’s data.
13. Third-Party Links
Our Service may contain links to other sites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party’s site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit.
We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.
14. International Data Transfers
Your information, including Personal Data, may be transferred to — and maintained on — computers located outside of your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction.
If you are located outside [Your Country – e.g., Indonesia, or focus on user location if known/relevant to service area] and choose to provide information to us, please note that we may transfer the data, including Personal Data, to [Your Country or countries where servers/processors are located] and process it there.
Where Personal Data of individuals in the EEA, UK, or other regions with specific international transfer requirements is transferred outside of these regions, we will take appropriate steps to ensure that your Personal Data receives an adequate level of protection, including by implementing appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) adopted by the European Commission or the UK Information Commissioner’s Office, or relying on the existence of an adequacy decision.
By submitting your information, you consent to this transfer, unless you are located in a jurisdiction that requires specific contractual protections for such transfers and we are able to implement them.
