All data collected is securely stored and encrypted both at rest and in transit. Access to this data is limited within our company, and we have breach notification procedures in place. Your data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, and users have the option to delete their data at any time.
