We retain information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the context in which it was collected.
7. Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of information processed through the Platform.

If information is transferred across borders, we take steps intended to ensure that such information continues to receive an appropriate level of protection consistent with this Policy and applicable law, such as through contractual safeguards with recipients.
