If you use a feature that requires payment of a fee, we collect your debit/credit card data or payment account information.
When you use one of our paid products, we track the web pages, and information that has been accessed by you, and store it on our servers. This enables us to track items that you have completed, and those that you need to see.

When you use certain features on our website/mobile app like the discussion forums and you post or share your personal information such as comments, messages, files, photos, which will be available to all users, and will be in the public domain. All such sharing of information is done at your own risk. Please keep in mind that if you disclose personal information in your profile or when posting on our forums, this information may become availablepublicly.
Data Security
When you require making a payment for the services, it transmits your debit/credit card data to our payment gateway/bank for processing directly. If we encounter a problem with payment, we may review the order information with you and our payment gateway/bank to resolve it. We do not have access to your debit/credit card information and as such may not be in a position to disclose your debit/credit card information by any means. We do not share your email address or your personal information with third party marketers.
We offer secure pages to collect sensitive information on our order form, such as debit/credit card information. We also use administrative, physical and technical precautions to help protect the confidentiality, security and integrity of personal information stored on our system. While no computer system is completely secure, we believe the measures implemented by our website/mobile app reduce the likelihood of security problems to a level appropriate to the type of data involved.

Other than the above mentioned sharing of data related to debit/credit card information, we only share personal information with other companies or individuals in the following circumstances:
- Satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request

Such information does not identify you individually.
We may provide information to service providers to help us bring you the services we offer. Specifically, we may use third parties to facilitate our business, such as to host the service at a co-location facility for servers.
How Long Do We Retain User Data
Currently, we plan to retain user data while an account is active and for at least three years afterward. We may alter this practice according to legal and business requirements. For example, we may lengthen the retention period for some data if needed to comply with law or voluntary codes of conduct. Unless otherwise prohibited, we may shorten the retention period for some types of data if needed to free up storage space.
