5. Data Sharing & Third Parties

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We may share information only in these limited circumstances:

• Legal Requirements: When required by law, court order, or government request
• Protection of Rights: To investigate or prevent fraud, security issues, or violations of our Terms

6. Double Opt-In Email Verification

To ensure data accuracy and prevent fraudulent signups, we use a double opt-in process:

1. You provide your email and explicitly consent to communications
2. We send you a confirmation email with a verification link
3. You must click the link in the email to confirm your subscription
4. Only after confirmation are you added to our mailing list

This process protects both you and us by ensuring email addresses are valid and subscribers genuinely want to receive our communications.

7. COPPA Compliance (Children Under 13)

Our services are not intended for children under 13 years of age.

• We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13
• If you are under 13, please do not provide personal information
• We require age verification: users must confirm they are at least 13 years old
• If we discover we've collected data from a child under 13, we will delete it immediately
• If you are aware of a child providing information, please contact us immediately

8. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information:

• Encryption: Data in transit is encrypted using SSL/TLS protocols
• Secure Storage: Personal data is stored securely with access controls
• Regular Audits: We regularly review security practices
• Limited Access: Only authorized personnel have access to personal data

While we use reasonable security measures, no system is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of your information.
