We maintain a strict policy against selling, trading, or renting your personal data to third parties. We only share aggregated, anonymous audience data with trusted service providers—such as analytics platforms and ad networks—to help us manage and grow our digital operations. These third parties are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and are prohibited from using your data for any other purpose.
