Google Analytics uses cookies and may collect your IP address. For more information about how Google uses data, please visit Google's Privacy Policy;

9.6. Cloud Infrastructure Providers. The Service is hosted on cloud infrastructure provided by platforms including Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and Amazon Web Services. While these providers may have theoretical access to data on their servers due to the nature of cloud computing, they are contractually prohibited from accessing or using customer data for their own purposes. SpillVR employees and authorized third-party contractors who require access to data for operational purposes operate under confidentiality and data protection agreements. Although these legal and contractual protections are robust, no security measure is absolute. For this reason, SpillVR intentionally minimizes the personal information it collects. The only personal information required for account creation is an email address, which is used solely for authentication purposes. SpillVR does not collect names, phone numbers, physical addresses, or other personally identifying information.
