We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:
•Service Providers: We share information with trusted third-party platforms and service providers that facilitate our business operations, such as payment processors (e.g., Stripe, PayPal), digital delivery platforms (e.g., Payhip, Gumroad, Whop), and email marketing services. These providers only have access to the information necessary to perform their functions.
•Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, court order, or governmental regulation, or if such disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of our customers or others.
4. Data Retention
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as for tax or accounting purposes).

Depending on your location (such as under the GDPR in Europe or the CCPA in California), you may have certain rights regarding your personal data, including:
•The right to access the personal information we hold about you.
•The right to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
•The right to request deletion of your personal information.
