5. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information, including encrypted connections (TLS/SSL), secure password hashing, and access controls on our servers and databases.

However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
