Security of Data 

The security of your data is important to us but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. 

Our Policy on “Do Not Track” Signals under the California Online Protection Act (CalOPPA) 

California law requires certain websites to let you know how they respond to web browser Do Not Track (DNT) signals. Because there is no current industry or legal standard for recognizing or honoring DNT signals, we do not respond to DNT signals at this time. 

If you are from the European Economic Area (EEA), CWF’s legal basis for collecting and using the personal information described in this Policy depends on the Personal Data we collect and the specific context in which we collect it. 

CWF may process your Personal Data because: 

EEA Residents 

Laws in the European Economic Area (EEA), provide certain data protection rights. CWF aims to take reasonable steps to allow you to correct, amend, delete or limit the use of your Personal Data. 

Accessing, updating or deleting the information we have on you: 

You can access, update, correct, or request deletion of your Personal Data directly within your account settings section. If you are unable to perform these actions yourself, please contact us to assist you. 

 You can withdraw your consent at any time where CWF relied on your consent to process your personal information. 

Please note that we may ask you to verify your identity before responding to such requests.

We do not sell Personal Data or share Personal Data with third parties for their own marketing purposes. We may employ third party companies and individuals to facilitate our Services (“Service Providers”), provide the Services on our behalf, perform Service-related services or assist us in analyzing how our websites are used. 

These third parties may have access to your Personal Data only to perform these tasks on CWF’s behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.
