Additionally, we undertake not to sell or rent your personal data to third parties, other than as described in this Policy, and without notifying you first.

VI. HOW WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA SAFE

We place great importance on the security of the personal data associated with our Users. We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal data we have about you against accidental, unlawful, or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure, or use. We make reasonable efforts to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk of the processing, taking into account the costs of implementation and the nature of the processing of personal data.

Immediate access to some amount of the data is only allowed to our authorized employees involved in maintaining the Services. Such employees keep strict confidentiality and prevent unauthorized third-party access to personal information.
