We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to use when you register on the site or use the contact or subscribe form of the website such as name, and e-mail address. This also includes information you provide when you sign up for membership using Google, Facebook, or email. When you choose to sign up through these third-party platforms, we may receive additional information from them, such as your public profile, email address, and any other information you have authorized the third-party service to share with us.

The purpose of the information is to analyze trends, administer the site, track users’ movement on the website, and gather demographic information.

These cookies are used to store information including visitors’ preferences, and the pages on the website that the visitor accessed or visited. The information is used to optimize the users’ experience by customizing our web page content based on visitors’ browser type and/or other information.

6. Advertising Partners' Privacy Policies
Third-party ad servers or ad networks use technologies like cookies, JavaScript, or Web Beacons that are used in their respective advertisements and links that appear on the Website which are sent directly to users’ browsers. They automatically receive your IP address when this occurs.

More detailed information about cookie management with specific web browsers can be found on the browsers’ respective websites
8. CCPA Privacy Rights (Do Not Sell My Personal Information)
If the user resides in California, certain rights may be given. You can request that a business that collects a consumer’s personal data disclose the categories and specific pieces of personal data that a business has collected about consumers. You can request that a business delete any personal data about the consumer that a business has collected. You can request that a business that sells a consumer’s personal data, not sell the consumer’s personal data. If you make a request, we have one month to respond to you. If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us.
9. How Long Do We Keep Your Information?
We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in the privacy notice unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other requirements). 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 detention is possible.
10. Controls For the Do-Not-Track feature
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Tack(“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preferences and 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 is not to be tracked online. If a stand 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.
11. What Are Your Privacy Rights?
If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information, which may be express and/or implied consent depending on the applicable law, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us by using the contact details provided in section 15. However, please note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal nor when applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

In principle, the Company does not collect any information from children under 15 or equivalent minimum age as prescribed in the laws in the relevant jurisdiction. The Company's website, products, and services are the ones to be provided to ordinary people, in principle. We encourage parents and guardians to observe, participate in, and/or monitor and guide their online activity. Suppose you think that your child provided this kind of information on our website.
