Consent (e.g., for newsletters);
Contract (to deliver requested services);
Legal Obligation; or
Legitimate Interests (e.g., website security or analytics).

5. Data Sharing and International Transfers

We may share data with trusted Data Processors who perform services such as hosting, email distribution, and analytics — under written Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) ensuring confidentiality, data protection, and compliance with GDPR, CCPA, and other applicable laws.

After these periods, data is securely deleted or anonymized.

7. Data Security

We apply reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information.
Despite our efforts, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
