8) Your Privacy Rights

EEA/UK (GDPR/UK GDPR)

You may have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, object, or port your data, and to withdraw consent at any time without affecting prior processing. You can also lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority.

United States (including California – CCPA/CPRA)

Depending on your state, you may have rights to know/access, correct, delete, and opt out of sale/share of personal information, and to limit use of sensitive personal information. We do not sell personal information in the traditional sense; where “sharing” for cross-context behavioral advertising may occur, you can request to opt out by contacting us or visiting a “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link (if available on the Site). We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

How to exercise rights:
Email privacy@insporya.com (or hello@insporya.com) with your request and enough information to verify your identity. Authorized agents may submit requests with proof of authorization and identity.

9) Data Retention

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described above, including legal, tax, reporting, or archiving requirements. When no longer needed, we take steps to delete, aggregate, or anonymize it.

10) International Transfers

If we transfer your information outside your country (e.g., to the U.S. or other locations of our providers), we use appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses where applicable.

11) Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures (e.g., encryption in transit, access controls) to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

12) Children’s Privacy

The Site is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent age of consent in your region). We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has provided personal data, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.

13) User-Generated Content & Social Features

Content you post in public areas (e.g., comments) may be visible to others and indexed by search engines. Social plugins (like/share buttons) may collect data per their own policies when you interact with them or view pages that include them.

14) Third-Party Links

Our Site may link to third-party websites/services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. We are not responsible for their content or practices.

15) Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date shows the latest revision. Material changes will be highlighted on the Site or via email where required.
