In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us. Certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies. For these providers, we recommend you read their privacy policies so you understand how your personal information will be handled. Once you leave our website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy.
