Data Security

The security of your personal information is important to us. We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information when you place an order or enter, submit, or access your personal information. These measures include:

Encryption: We use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online.

Regular Security Assessments: We regularly review our information collection, storage, and processing practices to guard against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction of your personal information.

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