4. Data Security

We implement a variety of security measures to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your personal information. These measures include encryption of data in transit using SSL/TLS technology, secure storage of personal data on protected servers, regular security assessments and vulnerability testing, access controls that limit employee access to personal information on a need-to-know basis, and employee training on data protection and privacy practices.

While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, and you transmit information to us at your own risk. If we become aware of a security breach that affects your personal information, we will notify you in accordance with applicable law.
