We process your personal data based on one or more of the following legal grounds, depending on your location and the applicable privacy laws:

• Contract: Processing is necessary to fulfill a contract or take steps at your request before entering into a contract, such as providing a requested service.
• Legal Obligation: We may process your data when required to comply with applicable laws and regulations.
• Legitimate Interests: We may process your data for our legitimate business interests, such as improving our services, maintaining security, or analyzing usage — provided these interests do not override your privacy rights.
