(Note: Payment information is processed securely through third-party platforms and not stored by Lyra Records.)

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. However, we may share your information in the following cases:

We may disclose your information if required by law or if we believe such action is necessary to comply with a legal obligation or protect our rights.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

You have the following rights regarding your personal information:

Access and Correction:
You may request access to the personal information we hold about you and request corrections if needed.

You may request that we delete your personal information, subject to legal obligations requiring us to retain certain data. Note that once a song is released publicly with your credit, we cannot remove it from streaming platforms retroactively.
