Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell personal information. We may share limited information with service providers who perform functions on our behalf, such as hosting, analytics, or communication tools, under obligations to protect that information consistently with this policy.

In the event of a corporate transaction such as a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to the terms of this policy or a successor policy.

Data Retention

We retain information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Criteria used to determine retention periods include the duration of an ongoing relationship, applicable legal or regulatory obligations, and the existence of any disputes requiring preservation of records.
