Such data is handled with enhanced security measures and used strictly for specified purposes like fraud prevention or legal compliance.

We do not collect data from minors under 18 years, and any such data discovered is promptly deleted.

2.8 All data collection is guided by the principles of data minimization, purpose limitation, and lawfulness, ensuring we only gather what is necessary for legitimate business operations.
