No method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. While we take reasonable precautions, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of information transmitted over the internet.
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and to meet our legal, accounting and business obligations.
When information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to securely destroy or de-identify it where appropriate.
