As a result, personal information may be transferred to, processed in, or stored in another jurisdiction, including the United States or other countries.
When information is processed in another jurisdiction, it may be subject to the laws of that jurisdiction and may be accessible to courts, governments, law enforcement agencies, or regulatory authorities in accordance with applicable law.

You may unsubscribe from promotional or marketing emails at any time by:
- selecting the unsubscribe link provided in the communication; or

35. Payment Information
If products, books, resources, services, or other items are offered for purchase through the Website, payment transactions may be processed by a third-party payment provider.
Where third-party payment processing is used, payment information may be collected directly by the payment provider rather than stored by kaitlynnmartins.com.
The payment provider's privacy policy and terms will apply to information it collects.
36. Privacy and Separate Ventures
Kaitlynn Martins may be associated with multiple businesses, ventures, brands, or projects.

Each separate venture may maintain:
- its own Privacy Policy;
- its own Cookie Policy;
- its own Terms of Use;
- its own customer or client records; and
- its own privacy obligations.
Where you interact directly with a separate venture, that venture's applicable policy should be reviewed.

- applicable laws;
- real estate regulations;
- professional requirements;
- brokerage policies;
- transaction documentation; or
- contractual obligations.
Those activities may be governed by separate privacy notices or policies applicable to the real estate brokerage, service, platform, or transaction.
This Website Privacy Policy is not intended to replace those requirements.
