5. Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data
We process your Personal Data based on one or more legal bases, depending on the context and jurisdiction:

6. Disclosure and Sharing of Information
We do not sell your Personal Data. We may share your information under specific circumstances:
- With Service Providers: With trusted third-party vendors who perform services on our behalf (e.g., hosting, analytics, AI infrastructure, customer support), under strict confidentiality agreements and data processing terms where required.
- For Legal Requirements: If required by law, regulation, legal process (e.g., subpoena), or governmental request in a relevant jurisdiction, or to protect rights, safety, or property.

- With Your Consent: For any other purpose disclosed to you, with your explicit consent.

7. Data Security and Retention
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect your Personal Data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no internet transmission or electronic storage is 100% secure.

Our Service is not intended for individuals under the age of 16, or a higher age threshold if required by local law (e.g., 18 in some jurisdictions), (“Children”).

11. International Data Transfers
Your information, including Personal Data, may be transferred to, stored, and processed in countries other than your own, including Indonesia where our operations may be based, and potentially other locations where our service providers operate. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those in your jurisdiction.
We will take appropriate steps to ensure that your Personal Data receives an adequate level of protection in the jurisdictions in which we process it. Where required by law (e.g., for transfers outside the EEA/UK), this may include using data transfer mechanisms such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by relevant authorities.

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We will notify you of significant changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the “Last Updated” date. We encourage you to review this policy regularly.
