   When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

   In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.

   We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.

9. Controls For Do-Not-Track Features

   Most browsers and some mobile apps offer a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) setting to signal your preference not to be tracked. However, no uniform standard for recognizing DNT signals exists, so we do not currently respond to them. If a standard is adopted, we will update this Privacy Notice accordingly.
