Another part of our priority is adding protection for children while using the internet. We encourage parents and guardians to observe, participate in, and/or monitor and guide their online activity.
Aftershoot does not knowingly collect or process any Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of 13, nor do we provide our Service to children under the age of 13.

International Data We Transfer
As part of providing the Services to you, we may from time to time transfer, store, or process your personal data to a country other than where you are located and make it accessible to our parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, and third-party service providers internationally. We will protect your personal data in compliance with mechanisms that are recognized under the relevant data protection laws and in accordance with this Privacy Policy wherever it is processed.

We retain the personal data you provide us for the duration necessary for the purposes for which it is collected, as long as we consider it potentially useful in contacting you, or for the duration required for compliance with applicable law, whichever is longer. We will delete this data from the servers at an earlier date if you so request.
Once the retention period expires, personal data shall be deleted. Therefore, the right to access, the right to erasure, the right to rectification and the right to data portability cannot be enforced after the expiration of the retention period.
