We may use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit the site, what pages they visit, and what other sites they used prior to coming to our site. We use this information solely to improve our website. Google Analytics collects the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit the site, but does not collect your name or other identifying information.

Our website is served over HTTPS and hosted on Cloudflare's global network, which provides enterprise-grade security including DDoS protection and SSL encryption. Since we do not collect or store personal data, there is minimal risk of data breach.
