By interacting, accessing or using my services, you agree to the information in this Privacy Policy. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully as it will help you make informed decisions about sharing your personal information with me. 

This Privacy Policy aims to inform you about how I process any information that I collect from you, or that you provide to me. In the context of the law and this Policy, “process” means collect, store, transfer, use or otherwise act on information.

• If you contact me, I may keep a record of that correspondence

I may also collect non-personally identifiable information, including but not limited to, usage data (e.g., browser type, device info), marketing data including your preferences, details of your visits to my site and the resources that you access, among others.

Where I need to collect personal data by law, or under the terms of a contract I have with you, and you fail to provide that data when requested, I may not be able to perform that contract. In that case, I may have to stop providing a service to you. If so, I will notify you of this at the time.

5. Data Storage and Security
