the link between purposes, context and nature of Personal Data is suitable for further Processing;
the further Processing would not harm your interests and
there would be appropriate safeguard for Processing.

We will inform you of any further Processing and purposes.

We do not share your Personal Data with strangers or weirdos or assholes (our definitions can vary, but I would never give the motherfuckers at Facebook any of your information intentionally).

We share your data with:

Our processing partners:

We accept payments through PayPal and Stripe.

We disclose your Personal Data to third parties or public officials when we are legally obliged to do so. We might disclose your Personal Data to third parties if you have consented to it or if there are other legal grounds for it.

We do our best to keep your Personal Data safe. We use safe protocols for communication and transferring data (such as HTTPS). We use anonymising and pseudonymising where suitable. We monitor, audit and fence our systems for and against possible vulnerabilities and attacks.

Even though we try our best we can not guarantee the security of information. However, we promise to notify suitable authorities of data breaches. We will also notify you if there is a threat to your rights or interests. We will do everything we reasonably can to prevent security breaches and to assist authorities should any breaches occur.

If you have an account with us, note that you have to keep your username and password secret. If you don’t, then it’s your fuck up, not ours. Don’t fuck up. You can’t expect us to be responsible if you are too dumb to take your privacy as seriously as we do.

Children

We hate kids, do not intend to collect or knowingly collect information from children. We do not target children with our services and you should not have any kids. If you did, you should be ashamed of what you have done:
