By accessing or using any link provided through this Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the practices described herein.

5. Data Sharing and International Transfers Data may be shared with trusted service providers solely for operational or security purposes. When data is transferred internationally, we apply appropriate safeguards, including Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent mechanisms, ensuring compliance with GDPR, LGPD’s international transfer requirements, and CCPA rules.
6. Data Retention Technical logs are retained only for the minimum period necessary to fulfill the purposes listed in this Policy, comply with legal obligations, or support security investigations. Following this period, data is securely deleted or anonymized.
