We collect personal information that you provide directly to us, such as your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, payment information, and any other information you choose to provide when registering, using our services, or communicating with us. We may also collect information automatically through your use of the Service, including device information, IP address, browser type, operating system, usage data, and cookies. We do not collect more information than is necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, and we take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is accurate, complete, and up to date.

We may aggregate and anonymize data for statistical and research purposes, in which case such data will no longer be considered personal information.
Information Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share your information with: (a) service providers who perform services on our behalf and are contractually obligated to protect your information; (b) law enforcement, government authorities, or other third parties when required by law, regulation, legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Quix, our users, or others; (c) parties involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate safeguards; and (d) with your consent or as otherwise permitted by law. We may also share aggregated or anonymized data that does not identify you personally for business, research, or marketing purposes.
Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information: (a) the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information; (b) the right to restrict or object to certain processing; (c) the right to data portability; (d) the right to withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent; and (e) the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

Data Retention
Quix retains personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and maintain business records. Retention periods vary depending on the type of data, the nature of our relationship with you, and applicable laws. For example, account information is retained while your account is active and for a reasonable period thereafter to comply with legal requirements and for backup, audit, and fraud prevention purposes. Transactional data may be retained for tax, accounting, and regulatory reasons. When personal information is no longer required, we securely delete, anonymize, or aggregate it in accordance with our data retention policies and applicable law. You may request deletion of your personal information at any time, subject to certain exceptions (such as legal or regulatory requirements).
We periodically review our data retention practices to ensure compliance and transparency. If you have questions about our data retention periods or wish to request deletion, please contact us at community.quix@gmail.com.
Children's Privacy
Quix is committed to protecting the privacy of children and complies with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), GDPR, and CCPA requirements regarding children's data. We do not knowingly collect, use, or disclose personal information from children under the age of 13 without verifiable parental consent, except as permitted by law. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without parental consent, we will promptly delete that information. Parents and guardians have the right to review, delete, and control the personal information collected from their children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information without your consent, please contact us immediately at community.quix@gmail.com.
For users under 18, we recommend parental guidance and supervision when using the Service. We do not condition a child's participation in any activity on the disclosure of more personal information than is reasonably necessary. We encourage parents to educate their children about safe and responsible use of personal information online. For more information about COPPA, visit the FTC COPPA page.
If you are located in the European Union or California, additional rights may apply to children's data under GDPR and CCPA. Please contact us for more information or to exercise your rights.
