Cookies usually contain identifiers, site names, and some numbers and characters. With the help of cookies, websites can store your preferences and other data.

Data Security
We have used industry-standard security protection measures to protect the personal information you provide, preventing data from unauthorized access, public disclosure, use, modification, damage or loss. We will take all reasonable and feasible measures to protect your personal information. For example, we use HTTPS for encrypted data transmission; we use trusted protection mechanisms to prevent data from malicious attacks; we deploy access control mechanisms to ensure that only authorized personnel can access personal information; and we hold security and privacy protection training courses to strengthen employees' awareness of the importance of protecting personal information.
Although we have taken the above reasonable and effective measures and have complied with the standards required by relevant laws and regulations, please understand that due to technical limitations and possible various malicious means, in the Internet industry, even if we do our best to strengthen security measures, it is impossible to always guarantee 100% security of information. You need to understand that the systems and communication networks you use to access our services may have problems due to factors beyond our control.
Your Rights
In accordance with relevant Chinese laws, regulations, standards, and common practices in other countries and regions, we guarantee that you exercise the following rights over your personal information:

For those requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require excessive technical means (for example, need to develop new systems or fundamentally change current practices), bring risks to the legitimate rights and interests of others, or are very impractical, we may refuse.
Children's Privacy
Our services are primarily aimed at adults. Children should not create their own user accounts without parental or guardian consent. For cases where children's personal information is collected with parental consent, we will only use or publicly disclose this information when permitted by law, with explicit consent from parents or guardians, or when necessary to protect children.
Although laws and customs in different places have different definitions of children, we consider anyone under 14 years old as a child.
If we find that we have collected children's personal information without prior verifiable parental consent, we will try to delete the relevant data as soon as possible.
International Data Transfer
Since we provide products or services through resources and servers around the world, this means that after obtaining your authorized consent, your personal information may be transferred to overseas jurisdictions where you use products or services, or be accessed from these jurisdictions. Such jurisdictions may have different data protection laws, or even no relevant laws. In such cases, we will ensure that your personal information receives adequate equivalent protection as in the People's Republic of China. For example, we will request your consent for cross-border transfer of personal information, or implement security measures such as data de-identification before cross-border data transfer.
