5. WHAT IS OUR STANCE ON THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES AND SERVICES?

In Short: We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties.

Our Services may contain links to third-party websites, tools, or services (including sponsors, advertisers, affiliates, and social media platforms) that are not operated or controlled by us.

We are not responsible for the content, privacy, or security practices of these third parties. Any data you provide directly to third parties is governed by their privacy policies, not this notice. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites or services you use.

6. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?

In Short: We keep your information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this notice, unless a longer period is required by law.

We will retain your personal information for as long as:

• You have an account or ongoing relationship with us,
  
• We need it to provide you with the Services,
  
• We have a legitimate business need to retain it, or
  
• We are required to do so by law (for example, for tax, accounting, or compliance purposes).
  

When we no longer have a legitimate need to process your personal information, we will:

• Delete or anonymize it, or
  
• If deletion is not feasible (for example, because it is stored in backup archives), we will securely store it and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

7. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?

In Short: We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information.

We take appropriate security measures designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures may include:

• Encryption in transit (e.g., HTTPS),
  
• Access controls and authentication,
  
• Secure data storage practices,
  
• Limiting access to personal information to personnel and service providers with a legitimate need to know.
  

However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we work to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

8. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?

In Short: Our Services are not intended for children under 18.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from or market to children under 18 years of age. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or, if you are under 18, that you are using the Services with the consent and supervision of a parent or guardian.

If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 18 without appropriate consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information. If you become aware of any personal information we may have collected from a child under 18, please contact us at contact@theinvestorspodcast.com.

9. WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?

In Short: You have rights to access, correct, and control your personal information, subject to applicable law.

Depending on the laws of your country or state, you may have some or all of the following rights:

• Access: to request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
  
• Correction: to request that we correct or update inaccurate or incomplete information.
  
• Deletion: to request that we delete your personal information, subject to certain exceptions.
  
• Restriction: to request that we restrict the processing of your information in certain circumstances.
  
• Objection: to object to our processing of your personal information where we rely on legitimate interests.
  
• Portability: to request a copy of your information in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
  
• Consent withdrawal: where our processing is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.
  

You can exercise these rights by contacting us at contact@theinvestorspodcast.com or using any tools we provide (for example, account settings).

If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), or Switzerland and believe we are unlawfully processing your personal information, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

10. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (DNT) feature or setting that you can activate to signal your preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected.

At this time, no uniform technological standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As a result, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or other mechanisms that automatically communicate your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will update this privacy notice accordingly.

11. DO CALIFORNIA (AND OTHER U.S. STATE) RESIDENTS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?

In Short: Yes, residents of certain U.S. states (including California) may have additional privacy rights.

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), may provide you with additional rights regarding your personal information, including:

• The right to know what categories of personal information we collect, use, disclose, and “sell” or “share”;
  
• The right to request access to specific pieces of personal information;
  
• The right to request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain exceptions;
  
• The right to correct inaccurate personal information;
  
• The right to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information for certain purposes; and
  
• The right not to be discriminated against for exercising your privacy rights.
  

To exercise these rights, you may contact us using the details in Section 13 below. We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.

If you are under 18, reside in California, and have a registered account with the Website, you may request the removal of publicly posted content you have provided. To request removal, contact us with the email associated with your account and a description of the content you want removed. We will take reasonable steps to remove the content from public view, but copies may remain in backups or archives.

Residents of other U.S. states that have enacted comprehensive privacy laws (such as Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, and others) may also have additional rights. We will honor such rights as required by applicable law.

12. DO WE MAKE UPDATES TO THIS NOTICE?

In Short: Yes, we will update this notice as needed to stay current with our practices and legal requirements.

We may update this privacy notice from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by a new “Last Updated” date at the top of this notice and will be effective as soon as it is accessible.

If we make material changes, we may notify you by:

• Posting a notice on our Website,
