  • Security of Your Information

We have implemented measures designed to secure your Personal Information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration and disclosure.

​

The safety and security of your personal information also depends on you. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any login credentials (including your account login username and password) that we have given to you or which you have chosen to access to certain parts of the Service. Do not to share your password with anyone, and users should exercise caution in providing information in any public areas of the Service.

​

Unfortunately, complete security of the transmission of information via the internet and mobile platforms cannot be guaranteed. Although we have implemented measures designed to secure your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Information transmitted through our Service. Any transmission of Personal Information is at your own risk. If your communication is very sensitive, or includes information such as your bank account, charge card, or social security number, you should send it by mail unless our Service indicates the particular transmission is secured. We are not responsible for the circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures we provide.
