02 · INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Information depends on what you choose to do.

03 · HOW WE USE INFORMATION
Use follows the reason it was collected.
We use information only for the purposes described here or otherwise explained at the time of collection. If your applicable law requires a lawful basis, the relevant basis may include consent, performance of a request you make, compliance with a legal obligation, or legitimate interests that do not override your rights and interests.

Use analytics or advertising only as disclosed.
Any analytics, advertising, affiliate attribution, or similar technology must be listed in the service register below and governed by applicable consent requirements.
06 · RETENTION & SECURITY
Keep information only as long as it is useful or required.
We retain information for the period reasonably necessary to respond to a request, keep the site secure, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, or meet legal obligations. The exact period depends on the information and the system that holds it.
The form sends email and does not create a separate WordPress database of submissions. Messages remain subject to the recipient mailbox and mail provider’s retention settings.
Hostinger and applicable WordPress security or caching components may keep technical logs under their operational and contractual retention practices.
Requests are handled as contact messages. No automated ToolMerit mailing list is currently connected to the public footer.
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures appropriate to the nature of the information we process. No internet transmission, email delivery, or storage system is completely secure, so we cannot promise absolute security. If we become aware of a security incident, we will assess and respond in accordance with applicable obligations.
07 · YOUR CHOICES & RIGHTS
Ask questions and control what you can.
Depending on where you live and the law that applies, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, restriction of, or a copy of certain personal information; to object to some processing; to withdraw consent where processing relies on consent; or to complain to a relevant data-protection authority. These rights are not absolute and may be subject to legal conditions and exceptions.

08 · INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS
Services may process data in more than one country.
Hostinger and mail-service infrastructure may process information outside the country where you live. Where applicable law requires a safeguard for an international transfer, we rely on the relevant provider arrangements and other permitted transfer mechanisms. Contact us if you need more information about a specific request.
09 · CHILDREN
