Octopii.co maintains appropriate security, integrity, and privacy safeguards for the personal information we collect and store about our account holders. Personal information collected by lightnovelpub.com is kept in secure operating environments that are not accessible to the general public and only authorized employees to have access to. We also have security measures in place to protect the information under our control from loss, misuse, and alteration (i.e., maintain data quality). For example, before allowing users access to their personal information, we verify their identity by requesting information such as their username and password. We also take reasonable steps to ensure that third parties to whom we transfer personal data provide adequate data protection.

Your personal information may be transferred to and stored in a country other than your home country. It may also be processed by employees of our affiliates and third-party service providers based outside of your home country. In this case, we will take reasonable steps to require that any third party in possession of your personal information take commercially reasonable security measures to protect the data.

However, no data transmission over the internet or through any wireless network can be guaranteed to be secure. As a result, while we make every effort to protect your personal information, you acknowledge that: (a) the security, integrity, and privacy of any and all information and data exchanged between you and us through our Service cannot be guaranteed; and (b) any such information and data may be viewed or tampered with by a third party while in transit.

We may also utilize Google remarketing services, which allow third parties, such as Google, to offer ads to you based on your behavior on our Service. This entails inserting a small piece of code given by Google into specific parts of our Service. This code allows third parties, such as Google, to store a cookie on your computer that notifies them about your use of our Service and enables them to recognize you and provide you related ads when you visit other websites in the Google Display Network. Other companies' remarketing services may be used as well.
