3. How We Share Your Information

5. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to provide the Service and fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Waitlist email addresses are retained until launch or until you unsubscribe, whichever comes first.
6. Data Security
We implement industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without parental consent, we will take steps to delete that information.
9. International Transfers
Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence. These countries may have different data protection laws. When transferring data internationally, we use appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission.
10. Third-Party Services
The Service does not currently contain links to third-party websites. When the Service launches, any integrations with third-party platforms will be governed by those platforms' own privacy policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties.

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We will notify you of material changes by email (if applicable) or by posting a prominent notice in the Service. The "Effective Date" at the top of this policy indicates when it was last revised.
