• Independent Policies: We do not control the privacy practices of these third-party merchants. We encourage you to read their privacy policies before making a purchase.
5. Data Retention

Registered individuals retain control over their information, with the ability to view, modify, or delete it at their discretion. However, if there are any constraints, we will update them in our privacy policy. It’s also important to note that authorized website administrators possess privileges enabling them to access and modify user information as necessary.
