5. Information Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share your information only in the following circumstances:

6. Data Retention
We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as necessary to provide our services.

Support records and technical logs are retained for a shorter period determined by operational and security needs.
7. Data Security
We implement industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information, including SSL/TLS encryption for data in transit, secure datacenter facilities with physical access controls, regular security audits and restricted internal access on a need-to-know basis.
