We may share your personal data with trusted third-party service providers that help us provide, operate, secure, and improve Glance. These providers may include services for cloud infrastructure, account management, calendar integration, subscription and payment processing, website operation, and email communications.

These providers may process personal data on our behalf and are only authorized to process it as necessary to provide their services to us.

We may also disclose personal data where required by law, to comply with legal obligations, or to protect the rights, safety, or security of Glance, our users, or others.

Glance integrates with third-party services, including Google Calendar, and may use other third-party services as our services develop. Your use of those third-party services may also be subject to their own terms and privacy policies.

    10. Data Security

    We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include encrypted connections, limited access to sensitive information, and security measures for our website and infrastructure.

    However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure. We recommend using a strong, unique password for your Glance account and avoiding sharing sensitive information through our services unless necessary.
