Plain-English summary
The privacy policy indicates that users might be required to pursue binding arbitration for unresolved Data Privacy Framework complaints (risk_flags-1). For Canadian residents, personal information is transferred to and processed on US servers (data_use-1), and the company explicitly states it may disclose personal information to public authorities for national security or law enforcement purposes (data_use-2).
