We are committed to protecting your Personal Data and have appropriate technical and organizational measures in place, including:

- Network protection. Multiple layers of security controls protect access to and within our environment, including firewalls, intrusion protection systems and network segregation. Our security services are configured, monitored and maintained according to industry best practice. We partner with industry-leading security vendors to leverage their expertise and global threat intelligence to protect our systems.

Some data you can delete whenever you like, some data is deleted automatically, and some data we retain for longer periods of time when necessary. When the data is being deleted, we make sure that your data is safely and completely removed from our servers or retained only in anonymized form.
