11. How We Protect Your Information
We take reasonable measures to help protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
However, no method of transmitting information over the internet or storing information electronically is completely secure.
Therefore, while we make reasonable efforts to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
12. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including maintaining website operations, managing comments, responding to inquiries, complying with legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing our policies.
The amount of time information is retained may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.
