Protection of Minors

The services provided by the Company are not intended for or directed to minors or persons under the age of legal consent.

We reserve the right to access and verify any PII submitted by or collected from you. If we become aware that a minor has attempted to or has submitted PII, we may not accept this information and may take steps to remove such information from our records.

International Transfer

Since we operate globally, it may be necessary to transfer your PII to other companies within the Cassava Group located in countries outside the European Union. This may happen if our servers or such companies are based outside the European Union, if you use our services and products while visiting countries outside the European Union or if we transfer your PII to such companies for purposes regarding which you will receive advance notice. The data protection and other laws of these countries may not be as comprehensive as those in the European Union – in these instances we will take steps to ensure that a similar level of protection is given to your PII.

Retention

Your PII will not be stored for any longer period than is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.
