Security Measures

We implement a variety of security measures designed to maintain the safety of your personal data both during transmission and once we receive it. Our security practices are aligned with industry standards and include, but are not limited to:

  • Data Encryption: Sensitive and private data exchange between the Site and its Users happens over a SSL secured communication channel and is encrypted and protected with digital signatures. This ensures that your information is secure and inaccessible to unauthorized parties.

Despite our efforts, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. We encourage users to take steps to protect their personal information online, including choosing strong passwords, keeping software up to date, and being cautious about the information they share online.
