WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING
TECHNOLOGIES?
In Short: We may use
cookies and other tracking technologies to collect and store your
information.
We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies
(like web beacons and pixels) to access or store information. Specific information
about how we use such technologies and how you can refuse certain cookies is set out
in our Cookie Notice
.
5. HOW
DO WE HANDLE YOUR SOCIAL
LOGINS?
In Short: If you choose
to register or log in to our services using a social media account, we may have
access to certain information about you.
Our
Website
offers you the ability to register and login using your third-party social media
account details (like your Facebook or Twitter logins). Where you choose to do this,
we will receive certain profile information about you from your social media
provider. The profile information we receive may vary depending on the social media
provider concerned, but will often include your name, email address, friends list,
profile picture as well as other information you choose to make public on such
social media platform.
We will use the information we receive only for the
purposes that are described in this privacy notice or that are otherwise made clear
to you on the relevant
Website
. Please note
that we do not control, and are not responsible for, other uses of your personal
information by your third-party social media provider. We recommend that you review
their privacy notice to understand how they collect, use and share your personal
information, and how you can set your privacy preferences on their sites and
apps.
6. HOW

INFORMATION?

longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting or
other legal requirements). No purpose in this notice will require us keeping your
personal information for longer than
the period of time in which users have an account
with us
.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to
process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such
information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal
information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your
personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is
possible.
7. HOW
DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION
SAFE?
In Short: We aim to
protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical
security measures.
We have implemented appropriate technical and
organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal
information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your
information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage
technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee
that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able
to defeat our security, and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your
information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information,
transmission of personal information to and from our
Website
is at your
own risk. You should only access the
Website
within a
secure environment.

minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the
Website
. If we learn
that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected,
we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such
data from our records. If you become aware of any data we may have collected from
children under age 18, please contact us at

CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK
FEATURES

and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ("DNT") feature or setting you can
activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online
browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage no uniform technology
standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such,
we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that
automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for
online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you
about that practice in a revised version of this privacy
notice.

provide information so that we can match it with information you have previously
provided us. For instance, depending on the type of request you submit, we may ask
you to provide certain information so that we can match the information you provide
with the information we already have on file, or we may contact you through a
communication method (e.g. phone or email) that you have previously provided to us.
We may also use other verification methods as the circumstances
dictate.
We will only use personal information provided in your
request to verify your identity or authority to make the request. To the extent
possible, we will avoid requesting additional information from you for the purposes
of verification. If, however, we cannot verify your identity from the information
