6. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures designed to protect your personal data from accidental loss, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

8. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our online platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to access or store information. These are used to enhance your browsing experience, analyze site usage, and assist in our marketing efforts. You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings.

Our online platform is not intended for children under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 16. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from a child under 16 without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers.
