8. What Security Measures Do We Apply?
We design our systems with your security and privacy in mind. We maintain commercially reasonable technical, administrative, and physical safeguards to ensure your personal data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy, and in compliance with applicable laws, and to protect against unauthorized access or alteration to, disclosure, or destruction of your personal data. For example, we may use encryption technology to secure your personal data during transmission to the Platform as well as external firewall and on-host firewall technology to prevent network level attacks. Only those authorized employees, contractors, and agents who need to know your personal data in connection with the performance of their services are allowed to access this personal data. We follow the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) when handling credit card data.
It is important for you to protect yourself against unauthorized access to your password and to your devices used to access our Services. You are responsible for keeping your password confidential (for example, ensure that you sign off when you have finished using a shared device). Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure.
