5. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. This includes the use of encryption, secure communication protocols, and regular security assessments. However, no system is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your data.

6. Retention of Data

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, or as required by law. If you request the deletion of your personal data or content, we will comply, subject to any legal obligations.
