Limited sharing occurs with trusted service providers who help us operate our platform, process payments, or provide customer support. These partners are contractually bound to protect your data and use it only for specified services.

We may disclose information when required by Philippine law, court orders, or to protect our rights and the safety of our users. In such cases, we review each request carefully and share only the minimum necessary information.
