We will not upload your personal information to any irrelevant third-party servers without your explicit consent. You can manage local stored data through device settings, and manage server-stored data through the functional modules in this APP.

2. Storage Period: The storage period of data varies by storage location: 1. Local storage data: The retention period depends on your device's local data settings and active operations (e.g., the data will be immediately removed if you actively delete local data). 2.
