We limit access to information about our users only to those employees and authorized parties who reasonably need access to the information in order to perform their job responsibilities. We use commercially reasonable technical, organizational, and administrative measures to protect against unauthorized or unlawful access or processing and against accidental loss, theft, disclosure, copying, modification and destruction, or damage. Nonetheless, we cannot guarantee that transmissions of your information will always be secure or that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat the security measures taken by us or our third-party service providers. Except to the extent that liability cannot be excluded or limited due to applicable law, we assume no liability or responsibility for disclosure of your information due to causes beyond our control. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please contact us immediately as detailed in the Contact Us section, below.
Retention
We will retain the information we collect about you for as long as necessary to provide the Service or comply with a legal request. We will anonymize or securely dispose of the information in our custody after it is no longer needed so that it can no longer be attributed to a particular individual.

- We may retain some of your personal information as necessary for our legitimate business interests, such as fraud detection.
- We may retain and use your personal information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations. For example, we may keep some of your information for tax, legal, and auditing obligations.
