5. Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

When your personal information is no longer required, we will securely delete or anonymize it. If deletion is not possible (for example, because the information has been stored in backup archives), we will securely store the information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encryption of data in transit and at rest, access controls, regular security assessments, and employee training. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
