  • Business transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets

However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Data Retention

8. Cookies and Analytics

What changed (October 2026): Google Analytics now loads only if you agree to it, and you can change your choice at any time.

Strictly necessary cookies

These keep you signed in, keep the site secure and remember your cookie choice. They are always on and are not used to track you.

Analytics (Google Analytics)

With your permission we use Google Analytics to see which pages are useful and how people find us. It is not loaded until you choose "Accept analytics" or switch it on in Cookie settings. If you switch it off later, we stop it and remove its cookies.

Campaign links and referral codes

When you arrive through one of our own links or QR codes (addresses that start with /go/), we record the visit on our own servers so we know which of our outreach works and, if a partner sent you, who to thank. This is first-party measurement: it is not gated by the analytics choice above, it uses no third-party cookies, and nothing is shared with advertisers or other companies.

The link sets two cookies on our domain, readable only by our servers:

  • ck_vid: a random visitor number, not linked to your name or email. Kept for 1 year.
  • ck_ref: the campaign or partner code from the link, so the signup form can fill in the "Referral or promo code" field for you. Kept for 90 days.

With each visit we store the campaign, the page you landed on, the website that sent you (its name only), campaign tags such as utm_source, an ad click identifier if the ad added one, a coarse device type (desktop, mobile or automated) and a one-way hash of your IP address. We never store the IP address itself. If you sign up within 90 days, the most recent campaign is credited on your account. Visits that do not lead to a signup are deleted after 180 days. You can delete the cookies in your browser at any time.

9. Children's Privacy

Our services are not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected information from a child, please contact us immediately.

10. International Transfers

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for such transfers in compliance with applicable data protection laws.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
