Novastock does not claim ownership of the materials you provide to the Services or post, upload, input or submit (further referred as "User Input") to the Services. However, by posting, uploading, inputting, providing or submitting your User Input you are granting Novastock, its affiliated companies and necessary sub-licensees permission to use your User Input in connection with the operation of their businesses including, without limitation, the right to copy data for backup purposes.

We do not provide your data (User Input) to third party marketeers under any circumstances.
Your User Input is always submitted at your own risk. We do our best to maintain the highest level of security, but please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable.

Novastock may use cookies to deliver core features, improve functionality, and/or improve user experience of the Services. By using the Services you consent to our use of cookies.
Your User Input may be removed after 6 months of inactivity. Inactivity means not making any updates to the cloud/offline storage database. Also, as part of our periodic database maintenance we may choose to delete some or all of your User Input at our discretion. In most circumstances this will only be User Input that we deem as having been inactive for a significant period, such as records associated with animals sold more than 2 years ago. In such a case we will attempt to advise you beforehand via the contact email address that you provided to us, so that you have the opportunity to export your User Input for storage/backup elsewhere.
