Transparency is a core value at Classify Blogs. While your public content (such as published blogs, usernames, and profile pictures) is visible to other users by design, we do not sell, rent, or misuse your personal information under any circumstances.

We only share your data in limited, carefully reviewed situations where it is necessary to provide our services or fulfill legal obligations. These include:
