What You Need to Know About Visiting External Resources
The platform may contain links to external websites and online resources that are operated by third parties independent of KatanaSpin. Once a user navigates away from the platform and accesses an external site, KatanaSpin has no control over the content, data collection practices, or privacy standards of those resources. Each external website operates under its own privacy policy, and users are responsible for reviewing those policies before providing any personal information. KatanaSpin accepts no liability for the data handling practices of third-party websites, nor for any consequences arising from a user’s interaction with those external resources.
Complaints and Disputes
Users based in the United Kingdom who have concerns regarding the handling of their personal data are encouraged to contact the KatanaSpin support team in the first instance, providing a clear description of the issue and any relevant account details. Upon receipt of a complaint, the team will review the matter and aim to provide a substantive response within a reasonable timeframe, typically estimated at 28 days from the date the complaint is received, though complex cases may require additional time. If a complaint cannot be resolved satisfactorily through the internal process, users retain the right to escalate the matter to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the independent authority responsible for upholding information rights in the United Kingdom, at ico.org.uk.
