5. How Personal Data Is Retained and Secured
Data Retention
We aim to retain personal data only as long as needed for the purpose for which it was collected, to provide Services, resolve disputes, establish legal defenses, conduct audits, pursue legitimate business purposes, enforce agreements, and comply with applicable laws.

Security of Personal Data
We use administrative, technical, organizational, and physical safeguards designed to protect information, which may include HTTPS connections, SSL/TLS encryption in transit, encryption for certain data at rest, and access controls and authentication measures. No transmission or storage method is completely secure, so absolute security cannot be guaranteed.
