  6. Data Retention and Security

    We take the security of your personal data seriously and are committed to ensuring its confidentiality, integrity, and availability. This section explains our policies and practices regarding the retention and protection of your personal data.

    1. Data Retention:
      Retention Period:

      We retain your personal data 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 specific retention period for your data depends on the nature of the data and the reasons for which we are processing it.

      Criteria for Determination:

      Factors we consider in determining the data retention periods include:

      • The duration of our ongoing relationship with you and the services we offer.
      • Whether there is a legal obligation to which we are subject (for example, certain laws require us to keep records of your transactions for a certain period before we can delete them).
      • Whether retention is advisable considering our legal position (such as regarding applicable statutes of limitations, litigation, or regulatory investigations).
      Deletion or Anonymization:

      Upon expiration of the retention period, your personal data is securely deleted or anonymized so it can no longer be associated with you.

    2. Security Measures:
      Data Protection:

      We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures designed to secure your personal data from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include encryption, firewalls, secure server facilities, and data transfer protection protocols.

      Continuous Monitoring and Improvement:

      Our security policies and procedures are regularly reviewed and updated as necessary to meet the changing threats and challenges, as well as changes in the law.

      Employee Training and Awareness:

      We train our employees about the importance of confidentiality and maintaining the privacy and security of your information. Access to your personal data is limited to those employees and third-party service providers who need access to perform their job function.

      Incident Response:

      In the event of a data breach, we have in place procedures to deal with such breaches effectively and will notify you and any applicable regulator where we are legally required to do so.

    Please be aware that despite our efforts, no security system is impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse. Any information disclosed online is vulnerable to interception and misuse by unauthorized parties. Therefore, we cannot guarantee complete security if you provide personal information.

    Your role in protecting your data is important. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential.
