Depending on the features enabled on Petlyo, these technologies may be used to:
Support website functionality and security.
Remember certain preferences.
Understand website usage and performance.

4. Google AdSense and Advertising
Petlyo may use Google AdSense or other advertising services to display advertisements on the website.
If Google advertising services are enabled, Google and its advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to collect or process information associated with a visitor’s browser or device. Depending on the applicable settings, consent, and regional requirements, this information may be used to serve advertisements, measure advertising performance, manage advertising frequency, or personalize advertising.
The data practices of Google and other advertising providers are governed by their own applicable policies and settings. Petlyo does not independently control all information collected or processed by these providers.
Visitors can review Google’s published privacy information and advertising controls to learn more about available options.
If advertising services are introduced or changed, Petlyo will update this policy as appropriate. Where required by applicable law, the necessary consent mechanisms will be implemented before relevant data processing takes place.

Website hosting and infrastructure providers.
Security, spam prevention, and website maintenance services.
Analytics and performance measurement tools.
Advertising providers.
Contact-form or email delivery services.

7. External Links and Social Media
Petlyo may link to external websites, social media platforms, manufacturers, or other informational resources.
When you follow an external link, you leave Petlyo and become subject to the privacy practices and terms of the destination website. We do not control how independent websites collect, use, or protect information.
The presence of a link does not automatically mean Petlyo endorses the external website or its privacy practices.
8. Data Retention
Petlyo retains information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including responding to inquiries, maintaining website security, keeping appropriate operational records, and meeting applicable legal obligations.
The appropriate retention period may differ depending on the type of information, the reason it was collected, the services involved, and any applicable legal requirements.
Information may be deleted or securely disposed of when it is no longer needed, subject to legitimate operational needs and legal obligations.
9. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information handled through Petlyo against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration.
However, no website, internet transmission, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. We therefore cannot promise absolute security.
Visitors should avoid sending confidential or sensitive information through ordinary website forms unless necessary and appropriate.
10. Children’s Privacy
Petlyo is an informational website for people interested in cats, dogs, and pet-related products and topics. It is not designed to knowingly collect personal information from children.
We do not knowingly encourage children to submit personal information through our website. If you believe a child has provided personal information to Petlyo, please contact us so that we can review the situation and take appropriate steps where necessary.

The availability and scope of these rights depend on applicable law and the circumstances of the request.
