<h2>Sharing Your Information</h2>
<p>We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>With Service Providers</strong>: We may share data with third-party vendors (e.g., cloud storage providers or analytics tools like Google Analytics) who assist us in operating the App. These providers are contractually obligated to use the data only for the specified purposes and to maintain its confidentiality.</li>

<li>Access to sensitive data is restricted to authorized personnel.</li>

<h2>Data Retention</h2>
<p>We retain your information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, or as required by law. Camera and microphone data are typically deleted immediately after use or upon your request (e.g., when you delete recordings from the App).
