The Sites and the Apps, along with the related content, applications, technology and services that that we offer through them, are referred to collectively as the “Platform”. This Policy describes:

  • The types of information we may collect or that you may provide when you download, register with, access, or use the Platform.

This Policy applies only to information we collect on or through the Platform.

Please read this Policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your information and how we will treat it. In using the Platform, you agree to be bound by this Policy. If you do not accept the terms of this Policy you may not access or use the Platform and you should discontinue your use of it.
