9. Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including providing services, maintaining transaction and consent records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and complying with legal, accounting, or regulatory obligations.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and why it was collected.

10. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

Our website is not intended for children under 13 to submit personal information independently. A parent or legal guardian should submit inquiries and provide any necessary information for services involving a child.

If you believe a child under 13 has submitted personal information without appropriate authorization, contact us so we can review and, when appropriate, delete it.
