**What data do we collect?**

 

Below is an overview of the data we may collect:

The personal data we collect through our services may include information that is requested from time to time, such as names, email addresses, addresses, phone numbers, IP addresses, and more. If we combine personal and non-personal data, we will treat the combined data as personal data as long as it remains combined.
