We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer identifiable data to external parties. This does not include trusted third parties who assist the data controller in maintaining the website or conducting business operations, but these parties are also required to keep the information confidential.
Data sharing may be necessary, for example, when authorities need to investigate, prevent, or otherwise handle illegal activity, suspected fraud, situations that may threaten an individual’s physical safety, violations of our terms of service, and other situations required by law. Non-private data may, however, be disclosed to third parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.

Retention of Personal Data
We retain data as long as it is necessary based on the customer or partnership relationship or until the data subject requests its removal. However, data required by law (such as accounting laws) or for the purposes of a contractual relationship will be retained. We take reasonable steps to ensure that outdated, incorrect, or irrelevant data is not retained for processing purposes.

Protection of the Register
We store your contact information in customer management systems that are password-protected. Only individuals who need access for the processing of the data are allowed to access these systems.
