GENERAL PRINCIPLES
For us, maintaining your privacy is of utmost importance. This privacy policy was created to safeguard and maintain the confidentiality of your personal information, including any sensitive information.
While we take all necessary precautions to uphold your privacy rights on systems and websites that we control, we cannot be held responsible for unauthorized or illegal disclosures of your personal information made by third parties outside of our direct control, such as advertisers and websites that link to our site. Please be aware that our business partners, advertisers, sponsors, and other websites to which we give hyperlinks may have different information and privacy practices than we do. Additionally, we are unable to warrant the security of the data you send to us.
We just take your personal information to run our business and provide and enhance our services. Your Personal Information will only be shared in compliance with this Privacy Policy. We will need your prior written approval before using it for any other purposes.
Unfortunately, we won't be able to offer you the Services if you choose not to give us personal information. When you use our services in an unencrypted manner and/or in an open, public setting or forum, such as (without limitation) a blog, chat room, album, community, classifieds, or discussion board, you are disclosing information that is not confidential, cannot be considered as personal information, and is not protected by our privacy policy. It is feasible for third parties to gather, compile, and exploit this information for their own reasons since such public environments are open to third parties. As a result, you should exercise caution when deciding to disclose any of your Personal Information in such environments.
Unless otherwise specified, information that is made publicly available is also shared with our affiliates, third-party service providers, competition sponsors, etc. Any damages that you or any third party may experience as a result of your disclosure of personal information in any public setting are not our responsibility. Therefore, you do so at your own risk when disclosing information in a public setting.
