5-bis. Sale and Sharing of Personal Information

In some circumstances, we may sell or otherwise share your personal information with third parties in exchange for monetary or other valuable consideration, or for targeted advertising and cross-context behavioral advertising, as defined under certain privacy laws (for example, some U.S. state privacy laws).

6. Security of Your Information

We implement appropriate administrative, technical, and physical security measures designed to protect your data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. While no system is 100% secure, we take privacy and protection seriously and regularly review and improve our safeguards.

7. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your country or state of residence, you may have some or all of the following rights with respect to your personal information:

• The right to access the personal information we hold about you
  
  

• The right to request correction or updating of inaccurate or incomplete information

• The right to object to or restrict certain types of processing, including direct marketing

If you are located in a region with a data protection authority or regulator (such as in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom), you may also have the right to lodge a complaint with that authority.

8. International Data Transfers

Because we operate globally and work with partners and service providers around the world, your personal information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in countries other than your country of residence, including the United States. These countries may have different data protection laws.

Where required by applicable law, we will take steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place for such transfers (for example, using standard contractual clauses or equivalent measures).

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our operations, services, or legal obligations. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. You are encouraged to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we handle your information.
