We use this information to create and manage your account, communicate with you, and provide the Services. The legal basis for this processing is the performance of a contract (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR).

You have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of this data at any time.

You will be able to manage your cookie preferences through a banner or your browser settings.
Access to all collected data is restricted to authorized personnel who need it to perform their job functions.

4. Data security and retention
We use industry-standard security practices to protect your data. We retain user account information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Services.

We retain transaction records (including references to payments via Stripe) for at least 7 years to comply with tax, accounting, and legal obligations, and may keep them longer if necessary for legitimate business purposes (e.g. fraud prevention or audits).

● EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework: Some of our service providers are certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, ensuring an adequate level of protection for personal data transferred to the U.S.
