This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your data when you visit our site or engage with our content—whether you’re browsing, subscribing, or contacting us.

We believe privacy should be straightforward, not buried in legal jargon. So here’s what you need to know:

You can adjust your browser settings to decline cookies at any time.

​

5. Data Retention & Security

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined above. We use standard security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration.

However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

​

8. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to external sites. Once you leave our site, our Privacy Policy no longer applies, and we’re not responsible for the privacy practices of those third-party websites.

​

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we do, we’ll revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
