We do not sell, trade, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

3. Third-Party Services

Optikal may use third-party services (e.g., cloud storage providers or analytics tools) to support the app’s functionality. These third parties may have access to your information solely for the purpose of performing tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for other purposes.

We take reasonable measures to protect your data. However, please be aware that no data transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
