PROCESSING YOUR INFORMATION
For the most part, We outsource the processing of Your information to third parties rather than processing it ourselves. An illustration of a third-party processor would be PayPal, which collects Your payment information. The funds are sent to Us after they process Your payment. As a result, in many cases, We will have to send Your information to a third party processor because We lack the necessary tools to carry out these tasks. The following provides more information on third-party processing.
Though occasionally We might internally process Your data. The legal basis for this processing is a combination of Your consent, Our need to conduct Our business as usual, and Our need to uphold the law. If We do process this information, it will be for the following reasons: to administer, maintain, and improve Our website and offerings; to enter into contracts with You and fulfill the terms of those contracts; to keep records of Our dealings and interactions; to be able to provide You with goods and services; to comply with Our legal obligations; to obtain professional advice; and to protect the rights and interests of Our business, Our clients (including You); and any third parties. The following data may be processed by us:
Information pertaining to Your account, including Your name, address, email address, and payment details.

INTERNATIONAL DATA
Our website is hosted by American servers. As a result, some of Your data will be sent internationally to and kept on those servers if You live outside of the United States of America. Additionally, We might work with subcontractors and third-party processors based in the US, such as payment processors. We employ all practical measures to safeguard the security of Your data while it is being transferred, including hosting Our website on reliable servers and working with reliable third-party processors. You agree to the transfer, processing, and storage of Your information in the United States of America by using this website and providing it to Us. Be aware that American privacy laws might not be as stringent as those in other nations. Please be aware that:
We reserve the right to transfer data we collect for processing or storage to locations outside of Our headquarters, where it may be processed either by members of Our staff or by third-party processors. We might work with outside parties, for instance, to fulfill orders. You consent to this transfer, storing, and processing of Your personal data by providing it. We take all practical measures to ensure that Your data is handled securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We store the information You provide on secure servers. Payment information and other sensitive data will be encrypted to ensure their security. We cannot guarantee the security of data sent to Us electronically because data transmission over the internet is never completely secure. It is at Your own risk to send us any data. You are in charge of maintaining the password’s secrecy if the information You sent to Us is password-protected. Any data breaches that arise from Your own disclosure of Your password or from Your failure to keep it secure are solely Your responsibility.

For instance, unless and until You delete Your account, We will keep some of Your personal information forever in order to maintain Your account. We will only retain data for as long as is required to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, which may include assisting with law enforcement investigations or identifying trends. We will permanently delete any information that is no longer required by Us for any of the aforementioned purposes.
Unless we are mandated by law to keep access to the data, we will abide by Your request to have Your data deleted, as detailed in more detail below.

Your personal information may be accessible via the internet anywhere in the world if You agree to this privacy policy, which You have done. We are unable to stop other parties from using or abusing Your data.
