Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information STOOQ collects, how we use it, and how we protect it during the pilot phase of the platform.

However, no online service can guarantee absolute security, and you acknowledge that information transmitted over the internet carries inherent risks.

You may request to:

• Update your account information.
• Correct inaccurate information.
• Remove your account from the pilot program.
• Request deletion of your personal information, subject to any legal or operational requirements.

As STOOQ is currently in a pilot phase:

• Features may change.

Any information collected will continue to be handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

We may update this Privacy Policy as STOOQ develops.
