This policy applies to visitors to the Site, users of the ChatGPT App, customers who purchase our products, wholesale and trade partners, and anyone who provides information through our forms, our online shop, the ChatGPT App, or direct communications with us.

When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies installed on your device.

Please avoid submitting sensitive personal information (such as health, financial or government ID details) through the ChatGPT App, as it is designed for product and ordering assistance only.
