4. DATA SECURITY AND RETENTION

We implement robust technical and organizational security protocols—including SSL/TLS encryption, restricted access controls, firewalls, and secure server architecture—to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

4.2 Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account remains active or as needed to provide you with digital products, subscriptions, and services. If you close your account, we may still retain necessary transaction, billing, and log data to fulfill legal, tax, anti-fraud, or audit obligations.
