We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, to meet legal, tax, or accounting requirements, or to resolve disputes. When information is no longer required, we securely delete or anonymize it.

Security

We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the information we hold. No system is completely secure, and we encourage you to use strong passwords and avoid sharing sensitive details by email.

Children and vulnerable individuals
