How long we will keep your information We will keep your personal data for as long as we have a relationship with you, i.e. for as long as you use the Platform, or partake in surveys. Once that relationship with you has come to an end, we will not gather or collect any new information about you. Once the relationship is over, we will only retain personal data for a period of time. This period will vary depending on the purpose for which we hold that information and subject to business or legal and regulatory requirements. Service Providers We may employ third party companies and individuals to facilitate our Service ("Service Providers"), to provide the Service on our behalf, to perform Service-related services or to assist us in analyzing how our Service is used. These third parties have access to your Personal Data only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose. Links to Other Sites Our Service may contain links to other sites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party's site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third-party sites or services. Information Shared Socially Our Service may allow you to connect and share your actions, comments, content, and information publicly or with friends. We are not responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any information you share publicly or with friends.

Please be mindful of your personal privacy needs and the privacy needs of others, as you choose whom to connect with and what to share and make public.
