Data sharing with our payment processor

When you purchase a subscription, our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com. Paddle is the Merchant of Record for all our orders and acts as an independent data controller for payment, billing, tax compliance, fraud prevention, and invoicing. Paddle handles all payment data directly; we do not receive or store your full card details. See Paddle's privacy notice for details.
