What data do we collect?

• Individually identifiable information, meaning information that can identify you or may be used to identify you with reasonable effort (“personal data”). Personal data collected through our services may include information such as names, email addresses, addresses, phone numbers, IP addresses, and more, as requested from time to time. If we combine personal data with non-personal data, we will treat the combined data as personal data as long as it remains combined.

How do we protect the data?

The hosting service for our digital assets provides us with the online platform that allows us to offer our services to you. Your data may be stored through our hosting provider's data storage, databases, and general applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall and offer secure HTTPS access to most areas of their services.

All payment options offered by us and our hosting provider for our digital assets adhere to the PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

While we and our hosting provider implement measures to safeguard your data, we cannot guarantee absolute protection and security for the data you upload, publish, or otherwise share with us or others.

 

How do we handle minors?

The services are not intended for users who have not yet reached the legal age of majority. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you are not of legal age, you should not download or use the services or provide us with any information.

We reserve the right to request proof of age at any time to verify that minors are not using our services. If we become aware that a minor is using our services, we may prohibit and block such users from accessing our services and delete any data maintained with us regarding such users.

If you believe that a minor has provided us with their data, please contact us as indicated below.
