Webedia, in its capacity as data controller, places great importance on respecting your privacy and is committed to building strong and lasting relationships with you. Protecting your personal data is essential to us. This is why we provide you with our data protection policy to inform you, as clearly as possible, about our practices regarding the collection, use, and sharing of information you may provide through the site https://my.webedia-creators.com (“the Site” or “myCreators”).

What personal data do we process and how is it collected?
