Note: This policy works in conjunction with our main Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. In case of conflict, the Privacy Policy governs data processing fundamentals.
Admin may share information only when necessary to deliver services, comply with legal obligations, protect rights, or with explicit user consent. We do not sell personal data to third parties for marketing purposes.
2. Types of Information Shared

| Transaction & Billing Data | Payment method details, invoices, subscription status | Payment processing, fraud prevention |
| Administrative & Audit Logs | Access timestamps, permission changes, data exports | Security compliance, internal auditing |
Aggregated and anonymized data may be shared publicly for research, benchmarking, or product improvement. Such data cannot be reasonably linked to individual users.
