Do not track requests

We respond to "do not track" requests in the following manner:

Our website currently does not respond to or honor "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals or other similar mechanisms transmitted by web browsers. Because a uniform technological standard for recognising and implementing DNT signals has not yet been fully established across the industry, we handle user tracking preferences strictly through our [Cookie Preference Center / Cookie Policy].

How long do we retain your information?

We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements). No purpose in this notice requires us to retain your personal information for longer than the period during which users have an account with us.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

We may share your information with third parties in the following ways:

1. Sharing with your consent: When you give consent, we may share your information with third parties for the purposes that are mentioned in the consent notification.
2.
