12. Data Security

We take reasonable measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, use, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

However, no website, Internet transmission, computer system, or electronic storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

The FTC recommends that businesses collect only information they need, protect information appropriately, and securely dispose of information when it is no longer needed.

13. Data Retention

We generally retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including providing services, maintaining business records, resolving disputes, preventing fraud, complying with legal obligations, and enforcing agreements.

The specific retention period may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.

When information is no longer reasonably necessary, it may be deleted, anonymized, or securely disposed of, subject to applicable legal or business requirements.

This Website is not intended for children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly request or collect personal information from children under 13 through the Website.

If we learn that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

Federal children's privacy requirements can apply to websites and online services that collect information from children, including through persistent identifiers such as cookies or IP addresses in certain circumstances.

15. Do Not Sell or Rent Personal Information

We do not intend to sell or rent personal information in the traditional sense of selling a customer database for money.

However, certain advertising, analytics, lead-generation, or marketing activities may constitute “sale,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising under certain state privacy laws.

Where applicable law provides you with the right to opt out of such activities, we will provide the applicable mechanism for exercising that right.

Some web browsers provide a “Do Not Track” signal.
