This Privacy Policy does not govern Customer-submitted data; the Customer's own privacy policy applies to that data.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use only strictly necessary cookies to operate the Service, including session cookies for authentication and security. We do not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies.
