“No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes.”

We may share your personal information with the following categories of third parties for the purposes described below:

• Affiliates and Corporate Partners: We may share your information with our affiliated companies, which are under common ownership or control. This is to help us provide you with a unified and consistent service. We may also share information with trusted business partners to provide you with joint products or services.

We take the security of your personal information very seriously and have implemented reasonable physical, technical, and administrative safeguards to protect your data from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. However, please be aware that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure.

We are committed to protecting the security of your personal data. We have implemented a range of appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your information against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access.

These measures include:

• Encryption: We use industry-standard encryption protocols (like SSL/TLS) to protect data both in transit and at rest.

• Access Controls: Access to your personal data is restricted to employees, contractors, and agents who need to know that information to perform their job duties. They are subject to strict confidentiality obligations.

• Firewalls and Monitoring: We use firewalls and continuous monitoring to detect and prevent unauthorized access to our systems.

• Regular Audits: We conduct regular security assessments and audits to ensure the effectiveness of our safeguards.

Important Note: While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. The security of your account also depends on your own actions, such as choosing a strong password and not sharing it with others.

In the Event of a Data Breach: We have established procedures to handle any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

We will retain your personal information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.
