We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will notify you by revising the date at the top of this policy.

Please note that, as part of our Services, we may link to certain third-party websites and offerings (collectively, the “Third-Party Services”) or offer certain solutions that users may develop and/or make available to their own customers (collectively, the “User-Generated Services”), neither of which are covered by this Privacy Policy. For information about how these Third-Party Services and User-Generated Services collect, use, and disclose information about you and what information they may share with others, please refer to the Privacy Policy of the relevant Third-Party Service or User-Generated Service.
