The internet landscape is changing, and companies around the world are implementing stricter practices to protect your personal information from unauthorized disclosure and to be more transparent on what is done with your personal information and how you can control how your information is used and distributed. We have always followed best practices in collecting and handling your personal information and will continue to make this a priority when you do business with us.
Below is a summary of our new Terms of Service and your rights in requesting, correcting, and deleting the personal information we have collected from you.

Data portability means the right to receive personal data in a machine-readable format and to request for such data to be transferred directly from one controller to another. This right only applies where the processing is based on consent or for the performance of contract; and; when processing is carried out by automated means. There is no right to charge fees for this service.
New functionality added to our control panel allows you to generate a customizable export of data relating to your account. This allows you to generate an export in JSON format containing the data entity.
