8. Data Retention

We retain your personal data only as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Criteria for determining retention periods include legal obligations, ongoing business needs, existence of an account relationship, resolution of disputes, enforcement of agreements, and necessity for fraud or risk management. Once no longer needed, we securely erase or anonymize your data so that it no longer identifies you.

These measures include encryption in transit and at rest where feasible, access control protocols, network firewalls, intrusion detection systems, regular security assessments, secure data storage solutions, and training our staff on data protection practices.
