We use technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect the personal data we collect and process about you. However, security risk is inherent in all internet and information technologies, and we cannot guarantee the security of your personal data.
We retain personal data 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 establish or defend legal claims, or for the compliance and protection purposes described above.

When we no longer require the personal data, we have collected about you, we will either delete or anonymize it (so that it is no longer personally identifiable with you) or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal data has been stored in backup archives), then we will isolate your personal data from any further processing, employing security safeguards designed to protect it until deletion is possible.
