Please read this Privacy Policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your information.  All activities in which you may engage on this Website or to otherwise receive the Services, such as use of any payment portal or other online platform if and to the extent such Services are provided, are voluntary. If you do not agree with the terms of this policy, then you should immediately exit this website and discontinue using the site.  By accessing the Services, you agree to this Privacy Policy.

  •   That is about you but individually does not identify you.

To the extent any information collected identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked with you, it is referred to in this Privacy Policy as “Personal Information.”  More detailed information about the categories of Personal Information we collect is provided in Section 9.
