Web Beacons. Certain sections of Our Service may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permit the Company, for example, to count users who have visited those pages and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of a certain section and verifying system and server integrity).

Where required by law, We use non-essential cookies (that is, Cookies other than the Necessary / Essential Cookies described below) only with Your consent. You can withdraw or change Your consent at any time using Our cookie preferences tool or through Your browser/device settings.

Necessary cookies and technologies may be used without consent where a legal exception applies, but information about their use is still provided.

Cookies and similar technologies may be used on both the Website at https://prepmaze.com and the Online Academy at LearnWorlds.

Use of Your Personal Data

The Company may use Personal Data for the following purposes:

To provide and maintain Our Service, including to monitor the usage of Our Service.

We send such marketing communications only where permitted by applicable law: where prior consent is required (for example, under the laws applicable in the EEA and the UK), We will send them only with Your consent; otherwise, We may send them until You opt out. You may opt out or withdraw Your consent at any time by using the unsubscribe link in any marketing email We send or by contacting Us.

To manage Your requests: To attend and manage Your requests to Us.

For business transfers: We may use Your Personal Data to evaluate or conduct a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of Our assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which Personal Data held by Us about Our Service users is among the assets transferred.

For other purposes: We may use Your information for other purposes, such as data analysis, identifying usage trends, determining the effectiveness of Our promotional campaigns, and evaluating and improving Our Service, products, services, marketing and Your experience.

  • No public sharing with other Users: The Service does not currently provide public profiles, community areas or learner-to-learner social features. Personal Data, course activity and assessment results are not made visible to other learners. Creating an Account through a Third-Party Social Media Service does not cause Your PrepMaze activity or learning information to be published to that service or shared with Your social-media contacts.

Retention of Your Personal Data

The Company will retain Your Personal Data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use Your Personal Data to the extent necessary to comply with Our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce Our legal agreements and policies. 

Where possible, We apply shorter retention periods and/or reduce identifiability by deleting, aggregating, or anonymizing data. Unless otherwise stated, the retention periods below are maximum periods (“up to”) and We may delete or anonymize data sooner when it is no longer needed for the relevant purpose. We apply different retention periods to different categories of Personal Data based on the purpose of processing and legal obligations:

  • Backup retention: Residual copies may remain in encrypted backups for a limited period consistent with Our backup retention schedule and are not restored except where necessary for security, disaster recovery, or legal compliance.
  • Anonymization: In some cases, We convert Personal Data into anonymous statistical data that cannot be linked back to You. This anonymized data may be retained indefinitely for research and analytics.

Transfer of Your Personal Data

Your information, including Personal Data, is processed at the Company’s operating offices and in any other places where the parties involved in the processing are located. This means that this information may be transferred to — and maintained on — computers located outside of Your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those of Your jurisdiction.

Where required by applicable law, We will ensure that international transfers of Your Personal Data are subject to appropriate safeguards and, where relevant, supplementary measures.

Under certain circumstances, the Company may disclose Your Personal Data if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g. a court or a government agency).

  • Comply with a legal obligation
  • Protect and defend the rights or property of the Company
  • Prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Service

  • Protect against legal liability

Security of Your Personal Data

The security of Your Personal Data is important to Us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. While We strive to use commercially reasonable means to protect Your Personal Data, We cannot guarantee its absolute security.

GDPR Privacy

Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data under GDPR

We may process Personal Data under the following conditions:

  • Consent: You have given Your consent for processing Personal Data for one or more specific purposes.
  • Performance of a contract: Provision of Personal Data is necessary for the performance of an agreement with You and/or for any pre-contractual obligations thereof.
  • Legal obligations: Processing Personal Data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the Company is subject.
  • Vital interests: Processing Personal Data is necessary in order to protect Your vital interests or those of another natural person.
  • Public interests: Processing Personal Data is related to a task that is carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the Company.
  • Legitimate interests: Processing Personal Data is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the Company.

The legal basis We rely on depends on the purpose of the processing:

  • Performance of a contract: creating and administering Your Account, providing and maintaining the Service, processing purchases and payments, and providing customer support.
  • Legitimate interests: securing the Service and preventing fraud and abuse; monitoring, analyzing, and improving the Service; sending non-marketing service communications; enforcing Our agreements and establishing, exercising, or defending legal claims; and evaluating or completing business transfers. Where We rely on legitimate interests, Our interest is the effective, secure, and commercially sustainable operation and improvement of the Service, and We balance that interest against Your rights and freedoms.
  • Consent: sending marketing communications where consent is required; placing and reading non-essential cookies and similar technologies, as described in the “Tracking Technologies and Cookies” section, where consent is required;
  • Legal obligation: retaining transaction, tax, and accounting records, and responding to lawful requests from courts and public authorities.

Where the provision of Personal Data is a statutory or contractual requirement, or necessary to enter into a contract with Us, We will make this clear at or before the point of collection, including whether You are obliged to provide the Personal Data and the possible consequences of not providing it. If You have questions about the legal basis for any specific processing activity, please contact Us.

International Transfer of Personal Data

We may transfer, store, and process Personal Data in countries other than the country in which You are located, including countries outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and the United Kingdom (“UK”), where data protection laws may differ.

Where required by applicable law, We protect international transfers by relying on:

  • An applicable adequacy decision or regulation, where the European Commission or UK Government has recognised that the destination provides an adequate level of data protection. This may include transfers to eligible United States recipients certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and, for UK transfers, its UK Extension, where applicable;
  • The European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (“SCCs”) and/or the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (“IDTA”) or the UK Addendum to the SCCs (as applicable).
  • Supplementary measures where appropriate, such as encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, data minimisation and vendor security reviews.

We transfer Personal Data internationally only as needed to provide the Service and to work with Our Service Providers (for example, hosting, analytics, email delivery). You may contact Us using the details in the “Contact Us” section of Our Privacy Policy to request further information about the safeguards We use for international transfers.

Your Rights under the GDPR

The Company undertakes to respect the confidentiality of Your Personal Data and to guarantee You can exercise Your rights.

  • Request access to Your Personal Data. The right to access, update or delete the information We have on You. Where possible, You can access, update or request deletion of Your Personal Data directly within Your Account settings section. If You are unable to perform these actions yourself, please contact Us to assist You. This also enables You to receive a copy of the Personal Data We hold about You.

You also have the right to object where We are processing Your Personal Data for direct marketing purposes.
  • Request erasure of Your Personal Data. You have the right to ask Us to delete or remove Personal Data when there is no good reason for Us to continue processing it.
  • Request the transfer of Your Personal Data. We will provide to You, or to a third-party You have chosen, Your Personal Data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Please note that this right only applies to automated information which You initially provided consent for Us to use or where We used the information to perform a contract with You.
  • Withdraw Your consent. You have the right to withdraw Your consent to Our use of Your Personal Data. If You withdraw Your consent, We may not be able to provide You with access to certain specific functionalities of the Service.

Exercising of Your GDPR Data Protection Rights

This privacy notice section for California residents supplements the information contained in Our Privacy Policy and it applies solely to visitors, users, and others who reside in the State of California.

We collect information that identifies, relates to, describes, references, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular Consumer or Device. The following is a list of categories of personal information which We may collect or may have collected from California residents within the last twelve (12) months.

The categories and examples provided in the list below are those defined in the CCPA/CPRA. Listing a category does not mean that every type of information it describes was in fact collected by Us. It means only that, to the best of Our knowledge, some information within that category may be, or may have been, collected. Certain categories would be collected only if You provided that information to Us directly. 

This list does not expand the types of Personal Information We collect; it only classifies, for CCPA/CPRA purposes, the information described in the “Types of Data Collected” section of this Privacy Policy.

Under CCPA/CPRA, Personal Information does not include:

  • Publicly available information, meaning: information lawfully made available from federal, state, or local government records; information that the Business has a reasonable basis to believe is lawfully made available to the general public by the Consumer or from widely distributed media; or information made available by a person to whom the Consumer has disclosed it, unless the Consumer restricted the information to a specific audience
  • Deidentified or aggregated consumer information
  • Information excluded from the CCPA/CPRA’s scope, such as
  1. Health or medical information covered by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and the California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (CMIA) or clinical trial data.
  2. Personal Information covered by certain sector-specific privacy laws, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) or California Financial Information Privacy Act (FIPA), and the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act of 1994.

Sources of Personal Information

We obtain the categories of personal information listed above from the following categories of sources:

  • Directly from You. For example, from the forms You complete on Our Service, from preferences You express or provide through Our Service, or from Your purchases on Our Service.
  • Indirectly from You. For example, from observing Your activity on Our Service.
  • Automatically from You. For example, through cookies We or Our Service Providers set on Your Device as You navigate through Our Service.
  • From Service Providers. For example, third-party vendors to monitor and analyze the use of Our Service, third-party vendors for payment processing, or other third-party vendors that We use to provide the Service to You.

Use of Personal Information

We may use or disclose Personal Information We collect for “business purposes” or “commercial purposes” (as defined under the CCPA/CPRA), which may include the following examples:

  • To operate Our Service and provide You with Our Service.
  • To provide You with support and to respond to Your inquiries, including to investigate and address Your concerns and monitor and improve Our Service.
  • To fulfill or meet the reason You provided the information. For example, if You share Your contact information to ask a question about Our Service, We will use that personal information to respond to Your inquiry. If You provide Your personal information to purchase a product or service, We will use that information to process Your payment and facilitate delivery.
  • To respond to law enforcement requests and as required by applicable law, court order, or governmental regulations.
  • As described to You when collecting Your personal information or as otherwise set forth in the CCPA/CPRA.
  • For internal administrative and auditing purposes.
  • To detect security incidents and protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent or illegal activity, including, when necessary, to prosecute those responsible for such activities.
  • Other purposes consistent with the context in which the information was collected, or as otherwise disclosed to You at the time of collection.

Please note that the examples provided above are illustrative and not intended to be exhaustive. For more details on how We use this information, please refer to the “Use of Your Personal Information” section.

If We decide to collect additional categories of Personal Information or use the Personal Information We collected for materially different, unrelated, or incompatible purposes, We will update this Privacy Policy.

Disclosure of Personal Information

We may use or disclose and may have used or disclosed in the last twelve (12) months the following categories of Personal Information for business or commercial purposes:

  • Category A: Identifiers
  • Category B: Personal information categories listed in the California Customer Records statute (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.80(e))
  • Category D: Commercial information
  • Category F: Internet or other similar network activity
  • Category G: Geolocation data
  • Category K: Inferences drawn from other personal information
  • Category L: Sensitive personal information

The categories listed above are those defined in the CCPA/CPRA. Listing a category does not mean that every type of information it describes was in fact disclosed. It means only that, to the best of Our knowledge, some information within that category may be, or may have been, disclosed.

When We disclose Personal Information to a Service Provider or contractor for a business purpose, We enter into a contract that describes the purpose, requires the recipient to keep that Personal Information confidential, and prohibits the recipient from using it for any purpose other than the limited and specified purposes stated in the contract, consistent with the CCPA/CPRA.

Categories of Recipients to Whom We Disclose Personal Information

We may disclose, and may have disclosed in the preceding twelve (12) months, the categories of Personal Information identified below to the following categories of recipients for the business purposes described in this Privacy Policy:

  • Category A: Identifiers — Service Providers, Our affiliates, analytics and advertising vendors that may use the information for their own purposes (see the “Sale or Sharing of Personal Information” section), and third-party vendors to whom You or Your agents authorize Us to disclose Personal Information in connection with products or services We provide to You.
  • Category B: Personal information categories listed in the California Customer Records statute — Service Providers, Our affiliates, and third-party vendors to whom You or Your agents authorize Us to disclose Personal Information in connection with products or services We provide to You.
  • Category D: Commercial information — Payment processors, Service Providers, Our affiliates, and third-party vendors to whom You or Your agents authorize Us to disclose Personal Information in connection with products or services We provide to You.
  • Category F: Internet or other similar network activity — Service Providers, including analytics providers, Our affiliates, analytics and advertising vendors that may use the information for their own purposes (see the “Sale or Sharing of Personal Information” section), and third-party vendors to whom You or Your agents authorize Us to disclose Personal Information in connection with products or services We provide to You.
  • Category G: Geolocation data — Service Providers, including analytics and online-learning-platform providers, that process or infer approximate country or regional information from IP addresses or other technical information.
  • Category K: Inferences drawn from other personal information — Service Providers, including LearnWorlds, that host or process assessment results, learning progress and limited performance-related information on Our behalf.
  • Category L: Sensitive personal information — LearnWorlds and other authentication or security Service Providers that process Account login credentials as necessary to authenticate and secure User Accounts. Passwords are not visible to PrepMaze administrators.

Sale or Sharing of Personal Information

As defined in the CCPA/CPRA, “sell” and “sale” mean selling, renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring, or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic or other means, a Consumer’s personal information by the Business to a third party for valuable consideration. This means that We may have received some kind of benefit in return for sharing personal information, but not necessarily a monetary benefit.

As defined in the CCPA/CPRA, “share” and “sharing” mean disclosing, making available, or otherwise communicating a Consumer’s personal information by the Business to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising, whether or not for monetary or other valuable consideration.

We sell or share Personal Information as those terms are defined in the CCPA/CPRA. We do not sell Personal Information in exchange for money. However, We disclose online identifiers and Internet activity information to third-party vendors in ways that constitute “selling” or “sharing” under the CCPA/CPRA, as described below.

In addition, the analytics providers We use (as described in the “Analytics” section of this Privacy Policy) may use the information collected on Our Service for their own purposes. Because We receive analytics and related services in exchange for making this information available, these disclosures may be deemed a “sale” or “sharing” under the CCPA/CPRA even though no money changes hands.

These vendors place tracking technologies (such as cookies, tags, and pixels) on the Website, and through these technologies, online identifiers and information about Your online activity are disclosed to them.

These disclosures may include disclosures for “cross-context behavioral advertising” as defined in the CCPA/CPRA.

We may disclose or may have disclosed in the last twelve (12) months the following categories in a manner that constitutes a “sale” or “sharing” as defined in CCPA/CPRA:

  • Category A: Identifiers
  • Category B: Personal information categories listed in the California Customer Records statute (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.80(e))
  • Category D: Commercial information
  • Category F: Internet or other similar network activity

The categories listed above are those defined in the CCPA/CPRA. Listing a category does not mean that every type of information it describes was in fact sold or shared. It means only that, to the best of Our knowledge, some information within that category may be, or may have been, sold or shared.

Retention of Personal Information

We retain California residents’ Personal Information for as long as reasonably necessary to achieve the purposes described in this Privacy Policy (including the purposes disclosed in this CCPA/CPRA notice), taking into account: (i) how long We need the information to provide and maintain the Service and Your Account; (ii) whether You have requested deletion (subject to applicable exceptions); (iii) Our legal, tax, accounting, and regulatory obligations; (iv) security, fraud prevention, and abuse monitoring needs; and (v) the time periods needed to resolve disputes and enforce Our agreements.

Specific retention periods for major data categories are described in the “Retention of Your Personal Information” section of Our Privacy Policy, and We may retain certain information longer where required or permitted by law (for example, to comply with recordkeeping obligations or to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims).

Personal Information of Minors Under 16 Years of Age

We do not sell the Personal Information of Consumers We actually know are less than 16 years of age, unless We receive affirmative authorization (the “right to opt-in”) from the Parent or Legal Guardian of a Consumer less than 16 years of age. Consumers who opt-in to the sale of Personal Information may opt out of future sales at any time. To exercise the right to opt-out, You (or Your authorized representative) may submit a request to Us by contacting Us.

If You have reason to believe that a Child under the age of 16 has provided Us with personal information without the consent of a Parent or Legal Guardian, please contact Us with sufficient detail to enable Us to delete that information.

    • Complete the transaction for which We collected the Personal Information, provide a good or service that You requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of Our ongoing business relationship with You, or otherwise perform Our contract with You.
    • Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
    • Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.

    • Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement, if You previously provided informed consent.
    • Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on Your relationship with Us.
    • Comply with a legal obligation.
    • Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which You provided it.

Exercising Your CCPA/CPRA Data Protection Rights

Please see the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” section and “Limit the Use or Disclosure of My Sensitive Personal Information” section for more information on how to opt out and limit the use of sensitive information collected.

Additionally, in order to exercise any of Your rights under the CCPA/CPRA, and if You are a California resident, You can contact Us:

  • By email: support@prepmaze.com

We may verify Your identity before responding to requests to know, delete, or correct Personal Information, as permitted or required by applicable law. We will not require You to submit a verifiable consumer request to opt out of the sale or sharing of Personal Information or to limit the use or disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information. For those requests, We may ask only for information reasonably necessary to identify the Personal Information to which the request applies and process the request.

Only You or an authorized agent acting on Your behalf may make a verifiable request relating to Your Personal Information.

Your request to Us must:

  • Provide sufficient information that allows Us to reasonably verify You are the person about whom We collected Personal Information or an authorized representative
  • Describe Your request with sufficient detail that allows Us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it

We cannot respond to Your request or provide You with the required information if We cannot:

  • Verify Your identity or authority to make the request; and
  • Confirm that the personal information relates to You

No later than 10 business days after receiving a request to know, delete, or correct, We will confirm receipt and provide general information about how We will process and verify the request and when You should expect a response, unless We have already granted or denied the request. We will respond no later than 45 calendar days after receipt. If reasonably necessary, We may extend the response period once by an additional 45 calendar days. If We do, We will notify You during the initial 45-day period and explain the reason for the extension.

Unless You request a longer period, Our response to a request to know will cover the preceding 12 months. You may request information collected on or after January 1, 2022, for a longer period, unless providing it is impossible or requires disproportionate effort. We are not required to retain Personal Information for any specific period.

For data portability requests, We will select a format to provide Your personal information that is readily usable and should allow You to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

You have the right to opt out of the sale and sharing of Your Personal Information. To exercise this right, contact Us using the methods listed in the “Contact Us” section, or follow the instructions below. We will not require You to create an account or verify Your identity in order to opt out, although We may ask for information reasonably necessary to identify the Personal Information to which Your request applies and to process the request.

Opt-Out Preference Signals (Global Privacy Control)

Our Service recognizes and honors opt-out preference signals, such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC), as required by the CCPA/CPRA. If Your browser or browser extension transmits a legally recognized opt-out preference signal, We will treat it as a valid request to opt out of the sale and sharing of Personal Information linked to that browser or device and, where We can reasonably associate the signal with You, to Your Account. You may need to enable the signal separately on each browser and device that You use.

Please note that the other opt-out methods described below are specific to the browser You use. You may need to opt out on every browser that You use.

Website and Online Academy

Click the “Privacy Preferences” / “Update Privacy Preferences” control on the Service, to review Your privacy preferences and opt out of cookies and other technologies that We may use. In Your Account in Our Online Academy, click the “Your Account” button to review and change Your privacy and cookies settings. 

Additionally, You can opt out of receiving ads that are personalized as served by Our Service Providers by following Our instructions presented on the Service:

The opt-out will place a cookie on Your computer that is unique to the browser You use to opt out. If You change browsers or delete the cookies saved by Your browser, You will need to opt out again.

Mobile Devices

Your mobile device may give You the ability to opt out of the use of information about the apps You use in order to serve You ads that are targeted to Your interests:

  • “Opt out of Interest-Based Ads” or “Opt out of Ads Personalization” on Android devices
  • “Limit Ad Tracking” on iOS devices

You can also stop the collection of location information from Your mobile device by changing the preferences on Your mobile device.

Limit the Use or Disclosure of My Sensitive Personal Information

We do not collect or use sensitive Personal Information for purposes other than those specified in the CCPA/CPRA and its implementing regulations, and We do not collect or process sensitive Personal Information for the purpose of inferring characteristics about consumers. Accordingly, We are not required to provide, and do not provide, a method for submitting requests to limit the use or disclosure of sensitive Personal Information. If Our practices change, We will update this Privacy Policy and provide the required means to exercise this right.

“Do Not Track” Policy as Required by California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA)

Our Service does not respond to Do Not Track signals.

However, some third-party websites do keep track of Your browsing activities. If You are visiting such websites, You can set Your preferences in Your web browser to inform websites that You do not want to be tracked. You can enable or disable DNT by visiting the preferences or settings page of Your web browser.

Your California Privacy Rights (California’s Shine the Light law)

Under California Civil Code § 1798.83 (California’s Shine the Light law), California residents with an established business relationship with Us can request information once a year about sharing their Personal Data with third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes.

If You would like to make such a request, or to ask that We not disclose Your Personal Information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes, please submit Your request in writing using the contact information provided in the “Contact Us” section of this Privacy Policy.

Children’s and Minors’ Privacy

This section explains how We handle the Personal Information of minors and applies in addition to the rest of this Privacy Policy. 

PrepMaze provides educational practice materials that may be used by Children. However, Children’s accounts must be created and managed by a Parent or Legal Guardian who has reached the age of majority in their country, subject to their agreement to our Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions. 

Children are not permitted to create an Account, make a purchase, or provide their own email address directly to Us. A Parent or Legal Guardian must create the Account, provide the Parent’s or Guardian’s email address, complete the purchase, and authorise the Child to use the Service. 

We do not ask Users to provide a Child’s date of birth, age, gender, grade level, telephone number, postal address or personal email address. We also do not use an age-verification system and cannot independently confirm the age of every person using the Service. 

When a Child uses the Online Academy through an Account created and managed by a Parent or Legal guardian, We may process information relating to the Child’s use of the Service, including course activity, time spent learning, progress, assessment answers, scores, attempts and completion information. We and Our Service Providers may also automatically process limited technical information, such as IP address, device and browser information, session data, and cookies or similar technologies. Some of this information is necessary to operate, secure and authenticate the Service, while non-essential cookies are used in accordance with the consent choices made through the relevant cookie banner, where required by applicable law. Parents and Legal Guardians should review and manage the cookie preferences for the Account and device used by the Child. For further details, please refer to the “Types of Data Collected” and “Tracking Technologies and Cookies” sections of this Privacy Policy 

By creating an Account for a Child, the Parent or Legal Guardian confirms that they are authorised to act on behalf of the Child and authorises the Child’s use of the Service and the processing described in this Privacy Policy. 

Parents and Legal Guardians may contact Us at any time to request access to, correction of, or deletion of Personal Data relating to their Child, subject to any information We are required or permitted to retain by law.

If We learn that an Account was created by a Child in breach of Our Terms & Conditions and this Privacy Policy, or that a Child provided Personal Data directly without the involvement of a Parent or Legal Guardian, We may suspend or close the Account and delete the information where appropriate.

Links to Other Websites

Our Service may contain links to other websites that are not operated by Us. If You click on a third-party link, You will be directed to that third party’s site. We strongly advise You to review the Privacy Policy of every site You visit.

We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third-party sites or services.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update Our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify You of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page.

If we make material changes, We will notify You by email or via a prominent notice on our Website prior to the change becoming effective. 

You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
