8. DATA RETENTION
We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or reporting requirements.
When determining the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process it, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
Generally, we retain your account information for as long as your account remains active. After your account is closed, we will delete or anonymize your data, unless we have a legal obligation to retain it. For example, financial records are retained for 5-7 years for tax purposes.

9. DATA SECURITY
We take the security of your personal data seriously. We implement appropriate technical, physical, and organizational measures to protect your personal data from accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access. These measures include:
Encryption: We use industry-standard encryption, such as Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS), to protect your data during transmission.
Access Controls: We restrict access to personal data to our employees, service providers, and agents who need to know that information in order to perform their jobs.
Secure Storage: Personal data is stored on secure servers with firewall protection and other security measures.
Regular Security Assessments: We conduct regular security assessments and vulnerability scans to identify and address potential security weaknesses.
While we take all reasonable precautions to safeguard your personal data, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

10. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS
The personal data we collect may be transferred to and stored in countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA), including the United States, where the level of data protection may be different than in your home country.
When we transfer your personal data outside the EEA, we will only do so if a legal mechanism is in place to ensure that the data is subject to an adequate level of protection, in compliance with GDPR. These mechanisms may include:
Adequacy Decisions: The European Commission has determined that certain countries provide an adequate level of data protection. We may transfer data to these countries.
Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs): We may use Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission, which contractually obligate the data importer to provide the same level of data protection as required in the EEA.
