LEGENDS Research LLC (“we”, “us”, “our”) is committed to protecting the privacy of visitors and customers of our website legendsresearch.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your personal information, and your rights in connection with that information.

Where applicable (for example under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)), our lawful bases for processing - your personal data include:

- your consent;

6. Sharing & Disclosure of Information

7. International Transfers

Your information may be processed and stored in jurisdictions outside your country of residence (for example, in the U.S.). Where applicable, we will ensure appropriate safeguards for any transfer of personal data (e.g., standard contractual clauses) and that your rights remain protected.

8. Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, including for legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. When retention is no longer required, we will securely delete or anonymize the information.
