3.Information Sharing and Disclosure

We respect your privacy and do not sell, rent, or trade personal data to third parties for marketing purposes. We share data only under the following circumstances:

  • Data Protection: We implement appropriate technical, administrative, and physical security measures to protect personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
  • Data Retention:
    • General Records: Store, delivery, and general operational records are retained for as long as necessary to fulfill operational, legal, tax, or administrative requirements.
    • Government ID Records: Account holder identity documents and government IDs are retained permanently for ongoing security, fraud prevention, audit verification, and platform protection, even after service contracts conclude or accounts become inactive.
    • Account Deletion: Account operational data can be deleted upon official request when active service contracts conclude, subject to legal obligations and our permanent identification retention policy for safety and security.
