4. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include data encryption, access controls, secure server environments, and regular security assessments. While we strive to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. The precise retention period will depend on the nature of the information and the services provided. When personal information is no longer needed, we will securely dispose of it.
