Legal bases
For users in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland, we rely on one of the following legal bases to process personal data: (a) performance of a contract (providing the service), (b) legitimate interests (improving and securing Map2Chart), (c) compliance with legal obligations, or (d) your consent where expressly requested.
Sharing & third parties
We share data with trusted vendors who help us deliver the service (for example, hosting providers, authentication tools, and payment processors). All vendors are bound by confidentiality obligations and data processing agreements. We do not sell personal information.
