Data2Stats treats all your Personal Data as confidential and uses such data only for the purposes for which it was provided, unless otherwise authorized by the client or required by law.

Data2Stats does not sell personal information.

We may share information with trusted third-party service providers, such as cloud storage providers, hosting providers, email service providers, CRM systems, analytics platforms, and other service providers identified in this Privacy Policy, solely as necessary to provide, maintain, and improve our services.

Nevertheless, Data2Stats implements reasonable technical, organizational, and security measures to safeguard Personal Data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, misuse, or other unlawful processing.

While we strive to maintain the accuracy, completeness, and security of your Personal Data, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure. Accordingly, although we take reasonable steps to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

You are responsible for ensuring that the Personal Data you provide is accurate and up to date and for informing us of any changes to such information. We will retain your Personal Data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, comply with legal and regulatory requirements, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, or as otherwise permitted by law. Thereafter, your Personal Data will be securely deleted, destroyed, or anonymized, as appropriate.

If you create an account with us, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for preventing unauthorized access to your account. You should take appropriate precautions to protect your devices and account information and promptly notify us of any suspected unauthorized access or use of your account.

Data2Stats processes Personal Data in accordance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012, its implementing rules and regulations, and applicable issuances of the National Privacy Commission.
