6. Security

We use reasonable technical, organizational, and administrative safeguards designed to protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Spegill is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

If you access Spegill from outside the country where our systems or providers are located, your information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in other countries. Those countries may have data protection laws that differ from the laws where you live.

9. Third-party services

Spegill may link to or integrate with third-party services, platforms, analytics tools, authentication providers, app stores, or infrastructure providers. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this Privacy Policy.
