Service providers: We may share data with third-party vendors who help us operate the App (e.g., cloud hosting, analytics, push notifications, crash reporting), who are contractually required to protect your data.
Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or governmental regulation, or to protect the rights, safety, and property of Otex, our users, or the public.
Business transfers: If Otex is involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, user information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services.

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Otex is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that a child has provided us with personal data, we will take steps to delete such information.
The App may contain links to third-party websites or services (e.g., payment providers) not operated by us. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies.
