In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, where your data may be transferred as part of the business transaction (with notice where required).
To protect our rights, property, safety, or that of our users.

All sharing complies with the DPDP Act and other applicable Indian data protection regulations.

4. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These include secure servers, encrypted connections (HTTPS where applicable), and access controls.

However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, and you acknowledge that you provide information at your own risk. We encourage you to use strong passwords (if any accounts exist) and keep your login credentials confidential.
