1. Information We Collect

We collect information to provide, operate, improve, and protect the Services.

a. Personal Information

b. Payment Information

Payments are processed through Stripe, Inc. When you make a payment, Stripe collects and processes your payment card details directly.

Stripe's collection and use of your payment information is governed by Stripe's Privacy Policy, available at https://stripe.com/privacy. We may receive limited transaction information from Stripe, such as the last four digits of your card, card type, transaction ID, and billing address, solely for account management and fraud prevention purposes.

d. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, and similar technologies to analyse trends, administer the Services, track user movements, and improve user experience. Stripe may also place cookies on your device for fraud detection and security purposes during the payment process. You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings; however, disabling cookies may affect functionality of the Services and payment processing.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information for the following purposes:

Service Provision and Account Management: to create, maintain, and secure your account; to provide access to subscriptions and features; to process payments through Stripe and deliver confirmations.

Service Improvement and Personalization: to analyse usage patterns and improve Services; to personalise content and functionality.

Marketing Communications (Optional): we may send promotional emails or newsletters if you opt in. You may unsubscribe at any time.

3. How We Share Your Information

We may share your information as follows:

Stripe Payment Processing: we share necessary billing and transaction information with Stripe, Inc. to process payments on our behalf. Stripe is a PCI DSS Level 1 certified payment processor. Your payment data is handled directly by Stripe in accordance with their privacy and security standards. For more information, visit https://stripe.com/privacy.

Service Providers: we engage third parties to perform services such as analytics, email communications, and customer support. These providers are permitted to use your information only to perform services on our behalf.

Mobile Information and SMS Communications: No mobile information, including phone numbers used for SMS text messaging, will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All other categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

Legal and Safety Obligations: we may disclose information to comply with applicable laws, respond to legal requests, or protect our rights, property, or safety. This includes sharing information with Stripe or relevant financial authorities in the event of suspected fraud or payment disputes.

4. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and improve the Services.

Once information is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it.

5. Security

We implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your information. These measures include access controls, encryption, network monitoring, and regular security assessments. Payment processing security is handled by Stripe, which maintains PCI DSS Level 1 compliance — the highest level of certification available in the payments industry. However, no system can guarantee absolute security.
