Under data protection law, we can only use your personal information if we have a proper reason for doing so, e.g.:
- To comply with our legal and regulatory obligations;
- For the performance of our contract with you or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract;
- For our business legitimate interests or those of a third party; or

A business legitimate interest is when we have a business or commercial reason to use your information, so long as this is not overridden by your own rights and interests. The table below explains the legal basis for how we process your personal information:

We may also anonymize, aggregate or de-identify personal information so the end-product does not identify you or any other individual.

How Long Do We Keep Your Personal Information?
In Short: We keep your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless otherwise required by law.
We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. Different retention periods apply for different types of personal information. When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
How Do We Keep Your Personal Information Safe?
In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.
We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.
Do We Collect Personal Information From Minors?
In Short: We do not knowingly collect data from or market to children under 18 years of age.
Our Services are not directed at children. We do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years of age. You may not use our Services if you are under the age of 18. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent's use of the Services. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records. If you become aware of any data we may have collected from children under age 18, please contact us at the contact information in the section below.
Where Is Your Personal Information Held?
In Short: Your personal information may be held by us and certain third parties, including some located outside the country where it was originally collected.
Your personal information may be held at our offices and those of our group companies, third-party agencies, service providers, representatives and agents as described above. Some of these third parties may be based outside the country where we originally collected your personal information. For more information, including how we safeguard your personal information when this occurs, see the international transfers section below.
How Is Your Personal Information Protected During International Transfers?
In Short: We may transfer your personal information internationally, but we take steps to protect it in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
To bring you our Services, we operate globally. Therefore, it is sometimes necessary for us to share your personal information outside the country where we originally collected it, e.g. with our offices in the United States, with our service providers located throughout the world, if you are based outside the EEA, or where there is an international dimension to the Services we are providing to you.
These outside countries do not have the same data protection laws as the country where we originally collected the personal information. If you are located outside the United States, we will only transfer your personal information if you provide your explicit consent, the country to which the personal information will be transferred has been granted an appropriate adequacy decision, or we have put in place appropriate safeguards (for example, standard contractual clauses).
Where the laws of your country allow you to do so, by using our Services, you consent and authorize our Company to transfer, store, and use all such information in the United States and any other country where we operate. If you do not want your personal information transferred to the United States and any other country where we operate, please do not submit any information to us or use our Services.
What Are Your Privacy Rights?
In Short: Depending on where you are located or reside, you may have additional privacy rights under certain applicable privacy laws, as described in our Privacy Notice Addendum.
If you are located in the European Economic Area, the UK, or reside in Canada, the State of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, or Virginia, please see our Privacy Notice Addendum below to learn about additional rights you may have under applicable data protection laws.
Do-Not-Track Features and Global Privacy Controls
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ("DNT") feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals.
The 'Global Privacy Control' (GPC) is a browser setting that allows users to automatically communicate their preference to opt out of data sharing or selling across different websites. If you have enabled a GPC signal on your browser, we will automatically process your request to not sell or share your personal information.
