5. Data Collection and Storage

To maintain security and prevent abuse, we collect and store certain data:

6. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. While we implement security measures to prevent abuse, we cannot guarantee the safety of external links. Users click on shortened URLs at their own risk. We expressly disclaim all warranties of any kind, whether express or implied.
