We consider these points to be the cornerstone takeaways for you to know:
Our main reason for storing user data is only to ensure the proper functionality and a better user experience of our service and related online services.
We will never sell your personal data to third parties. Although certain data needs to be shared with key partners, such as server hosting providers, and we also share it for our other legitimate business purposes, such as analytics services, we have ensured that all such partners also meet all GDPR standards.
We are continuously implementing the very latest technologies to ensure that all data is always stored in a safe manner according to the latest security standards.
