Despite these measures, no security system is impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee the security of our systems or databases. You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of any password you use to access our services, and for taking precautions to protect your own information.

07 — Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy any legal, regulatory, accounting, or reporting requirements. When determining the appropriate retention period, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process the data, and applicable legal requirements.

We may retain certain information even after you close your account or after we stop providing services to you, to the extent we are required or permitted to do so by applicable law.

08 — Your Choices
