- improve our website and service
- send service updates and, where allowed, marketing emails you can opt out of at any time

4. Legal bases for visitors in the EEA and UK
We process personal information to perform our contract with you, for our legitimate interests in running and securing the service, to comply with the law, and with your consent where consent is required.
5. How we share information
We share personal information only when needed to run the service, including with:
- hosting, email and payment providers that work on our behalf

- the reseller that placed an order for you, if you ordered through one
- authorities or advisers when the law requires it or to protect our rights
- a buyer or successor if our business is sold or reorganized
We do not sell personal information.
6. Cookies
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies that are needed for it to work, and may use analytics cookies to understand how pages are used.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although some features may then stop working.
7. How long we keep information
We keep personal information for as long as your account is active and afterwards for as long as needed to meet legal, tax and accounting obligations or to resolve disputes.
8. Security
We use technical and organizational measures to protect personal information, including encrypted connections and restricted access.
No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of your personal information, and to object to or restrict certain processing.
California residents have the right to know what personal information we collect and how it is used, to delete it, to correct it and to opt out of its sale or sharing.
We do not sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, and we will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.
To make a request, use our contact page or call us, and we will verify your identity before we respond.
10. International transfers
We are based in the United States, so information may be processed there and in other countries where our providers operate, with safeguards required by applicable law.
11. Children
Our service is intended for businesses and is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.
12. Links to other websites
Outlets and other websites linked from our pages have their own privacy policies, which we do not control.
