We do not sell, rent, or lease your personal information to third parties. In certain cases, we may share your information with trusted service providers who assist us in delivering services (such as email platforms, hosting providers, or customer support). These parties are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information and may only use it for purposes related to their services.

We do not collect or disclose sensitive personal data—such as race, religion, or political affiliation—without your explicit consent.

We may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with legal obligations.
