  • Necessary / Essential Cookies

    Type: Session Cookies

    Administered by: Us

    Purpose: These Cookies are essential to provide You with services available through the Website and to enable You to use some of its features. They help to authenticate users and prevent fraudulent use of user accounts. Without these Cookies, the services that You have asked for cannot be provided, and We only use these Cookies to provide You with those services.

Use of Your Personal Data

The Operator may use Personal Data for the following purposes:

  • To provide and maintain Our Service, including to monitor the usage of Our Service.

  • To manage Your requests: To attend and manage Your requests to Us.

  • For other purposes: We may use Your information for other purposes, such as data analysis, identifying usage trends, and evaluating and improving Our Service, products, services, marketing and Your experience.

  • With Service Providers: We may share Your Personal Data with Service Providers to monitor and analyze the use of Our Service, and to contact You.

The Operator 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.

Where possible, We apply shorter retention periods and/or reduce identifiability by deleting, aggregating, or anonymizing data. Unless otherwise stated, the retention periods below are maximum periods ("up to") and We may delete or anonymize data sooner when it is no longer needed for the relevant purpose. We apply different retention periods to different categories of Personal Data based on the purpose of processing and legal obligations:

  • Usage Data

    • Website analytics data (cookies, IP addresses, device identifiers): up to 24 months from the date of collection, which allows us to analyze trends while respecting privacy principles.

    • Server logs (IP addresses, access times): up to 24 months for security monitoring and troubleshooting purposes.

Usage Data is retained in accordance with the retention periods described above, and may be retained longer only where necessary for security, fraud prevention, or legal compliance.

We may retain Personal Data beyond the periods stated above for different reasons:

  • Legal obligation: We are required by law to retain specific data (e.g., financial records for tax authorities).
  • Legal claims: Data is necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
  • Your explicit request: You ask Us to retain specific information.
  • Technical limitations: Data exists in backup systems that are scheduled for routine deletion.

You may request information about how long We will retain Your Personal Data by contacting Us.

When retention periods expire, We securely delete or anonymize Personal Data according to the following procedures:

  • Deletion: Personal Data is removed from Our systems and no longer actively processed.
  • Backup retention: Residual copies may remain in encrypted backups for a limited period consistent with Our backup retention schedule and are not restored except where necessary for security, disaster recovery, or legal compliance.
  • Anonymization: In some cases, We convert Personal Data into anonymous statistical data that cannot be linked back to You. This anonymized data may be retained indefinitely for research and analytics.

Transfer of Your Personal Data

Your information, including Personal Data, is processed at the Operator's operating offices and in any other places where the parties involved in the processing are located. This means that this information 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.

Where required by applicable law, We will ensure that international transfers of Your Personal Data are subject to appropriate safeguards and, where relevant, supplementary measures. The Operator will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that Your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and no transfer of Your Personal Data will take place to an organization or a country unless there are adequate controls in place, including the security of Your data and other personal information.

Law Enforcement

Under certain circumstances, the Operator may disclose Your Personal Data if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g. a court or a government agency).

Other Legal Requirements

The Operator may disclose Your Personal Data in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to:

  • Comply with a legal obligation
  • Protect and defend the rights or property of the Operator
  • Prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Service
  • Protect the personal safety of Users of the Service or the public
  • Protect against legal liability
