How We Disclose Information

We may disclose information to:

Service Providers

We may use vendors to provide website hosting, analytics, email delivery, form processing, security, data storage, and other operational services. These providers may access information only as reasonably necessary to perform services on our behalf, subject to their agreements and applicable law.

We may share limited campaign or engagement information with advertisers and sponsors. Unless clearly disclosed and permitted by law, we do not provide advertisers with subscriber email addresses or direct contact information for their independent marketing.

Third-Party Websites and Embedded Content

The website may link to or display content from third-party websites, services, social platforms, advertisers, or other sources.

We do not control the privacy, security, or content practices of third parties. Visiting a third-party website or interacting with embedded content may allow that party to collect information directly from you. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any external services you use.

Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, maintain business and legal records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and comply with applicable law.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, the reason it was collected, and applicable legal requirements.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information.

However, no website, transmission method, or storage system is completely secure. We cannot guarantee the absolute security of information submitted through or stored in connection with the website.
