For example, we store personal information that we have collected in secure operating environments and behind firewalls on our secure servers. All of our software is up to date. Any website traffic is encrypted using SSL and TLS 1.3 technology. User passwords are hashed by using a cryptographically secure one-way hash function.
We will only retain your personal information for the period of time reasonably required to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected. We may retain non-personal information for as long as we have a business need to do so.
An organization must protect personal information that is in its custody or under its control by making reasonable security arrangements against such risks as unauthorized access, collection, use, disclosure, copying, modification, disposal, or destruction. All of our service providers and contractors are contractually obligated to employ appropriate data security measures with respect to your personal information and to collect/use/disclose/retain it only within the scope required for the provision of our Services.
