Please be aware that our services may enable social interactions (e.g., posting content, sharing information, and chatting with other users). Any content or data you provide in these areas may be read, collected, and used by others. We advise you not to post or share information you do not want to make public. Any content you upload to our digital assets or otherwise provide in connection with the use of a service is at your own risk. We cannot control the actions of other users or members of the public who may access your data or content.

We may correct, supplement, or delete inaccurate or incomplete data at any time and at our sole discretion.
How We Protect the Data:
The hosting service for our digital assets provides us with the online platform through which we offer our services. Your data may be stored via the hosting provider's data storage, databases, and general applications. It stores your data on secure servers behind a firewall and provides secure HTTPS access to most areas of its services.
Despite the measures and efforts taken by us and our hosting provider, we cannot and will not guarantee absolute protection and security of the data you upload, post, or otherwise share with us or others.
For this reason, we ask that you set secure passwords and avoid sharing sensitive information that, in your opinion, could cause significant or lasting harm if disclosed. Since email and instant messaging are not considered secure forms of communication, we also ask that you do not share sensitive information via these communication channels.

If we become aware that a minor is using our services, we may prohibit and block such users from accessing our services and will delete any data stored with us regarding that user. If you believe that a minor has shared data with us, please contact us as outlined below.
