How long we store personal information

How we protect your personal information

To ensure your protection, we use transport layer security protocol to transmit personal information within our system.

While we take every reasonable precaution to ensure that our user information is secure and that users are protected, there is always a risk of harm. The internet as a whole can be unsecure at times, and so we are unable to guarantee the security of user information beyond what is reasonable.
