Authorities when legally required; and

California residents may request: categories/sources of data collected, purposes, third-party disclosures, access to specific pieces, deletion or correction, and to opt out of “sharing” for cross-context behavioral advertising where applicable.
Send requests to info@merdebiker.com with “California Privacy Request” in the subject. Where required, we honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals.
6) Children
Our Services aren’t directed to children under 13; we don’t knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child provided information, contact us so we can delete it.
7) Retention
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes above and to satisfy legal/accounting/reporting requirements.
8) Security
We apply reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards. No method is perfect—please use strong passwords and protect your account.

If you access the Services from outside the U.S., your data may be processed in the U.S., where privacy laws may differ from those in your country.
10) Third-party links
External sites we link to have their own privacy practices.
