2. How we use your information
We use the information we collect to operate our business and deliver our services. Specifically, we use it to:

- Process payments, issue invoices and manage your account.
- Communicate with you about your account, services, updates and support requests.

3. Cookies
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to make the site work, remember your preferences and understand how the site is used. Essential cookies are needed for core functionality such as maintaining your session. You can control or disable non-essential cookies through your browser settings, though some features may not work correctly if you do.
4. Third parties and payment processors
We share personal information with third-party service providers only where it is necessary to deliver our services. These include:
- Payment processors: such as PayPal and other payment providers, who handle your payment transactions securely. Your payment details are provided directly to them and are subject to their own privacy policies.
- Infrastructure and operational providers: partners that help us run our platform, such as network, datacenter and communication providers.
We require these providers to handle your data appropriately and only for the purposes we specify. We may also disclose information where required by law, court order or valid legal process.
5. Data security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse or alteration. This includes access controls, encryption where appropriate and secure handling of sensitive data. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
6. Data retention
We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide our services. We may retain certain information for longer where required to comply with legal, tax or regulatory obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce our agreements. When information is no longer needed, we take steps to delete or anonymize it.

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Request deletion of your personal information, subject to legal retention requirements.

8. International data transfers
We operate infrastructure in Vietnam and serve customers worldwide. As a result, your information may be processed in Vietnam or in other locations where we or our service providers operate. Where information is transferred across borders, we take steps to ensure it remains protected in line with this policy.
