We will not sell or share your Personally Identifiable Information with third parties for the third party's own direct marketing purposes without your express consent. (However, please note that if you click on or otherwise interact with an advertisement on our Platform, the advertiser may assume that you meet its target criteria, even though we have not shared your Personally Identifiable Information.)

• How Information May Be Shared

The security of your information is important to IFIXIN, and we have established administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your Personally Identifiable Information against unauthorized alteration, access, loss, theft, use or disclosure. Unfortunately, no system can guarantee complete security of your information. As a result, IFIXIN cannot ensure or warrant that your information, including your Personally Identifiable Information, is secure from unauthorized third parties. Thus, your use of the Platform and communication with us is at your own risk.

You are responsible for protecting your username and password(s) and for the security of information that you transmit to us over the internet.

If you have reason to believe that your interaction with the Platform is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of your username or password has been compromised), you must immediately notify us of the problem by contacting us.

• Children

Our Platform is directed to and is intended to be used only by persons who are 18 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 18. If you are under 18 years of age, you are not permitted to register for an account or otherwise submit any personally identifiable information to us, including your name, address or e-mail address. If we discover that we have collected any personally identifiable information from a child under the age of 18, we will suspend the associated account and remove that information from our database as soon as possible. By registering for an account or submitting any personally identifiable information to us, you represent and warrant that you are 18 years of age or older.

• Changes to Our Privacy Policy

Accordingly, it is important that you always maintain and update your contact information.

Your continued use of the Platform or communication with us after the updated Privacy Policy has been posted (or any other indication of your consent) will constitute your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.

Please note that we may condition your continued access to our Platform on your consent to changes to this Privacy Policy.
