Security over the internet
7.1 No data transmission over the Internet or website can be guaranteed to be secure from intrusion. However, we maintain commercially reasonable physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your personal information in accordance with data protection legislative requirements. You should take all precautions to safeguard your passwords and any account information that you may have or provide and to employ current virus-scanning or firewall software and other security safeguards. You should also log out of your account and close your browser window. In the event of a data breach, we will provide you with notification as required by applicable law.
7.2 We will store all the personal information you provide on our secure password and firewall-protected servers. All electronic transactions you make to or receive from us on our website will be encrypted using SSL technology. We may store your data on servers overseas or “in the cloud,” and by using the Website or otherwise providing us with information, you consent to us storing your information in this manner.
7.3 Our systems use a third-party email service that we access over an encrypted HTTPS connection, which in turn uses opportunistic TLS connections to relay emails. For the majority of our customers, this means that the receipt of emails and their associated attachments is secured right from the connection with a customer's email server.
7.4 Do Not Track. Some browsers may have the option to transmit a “do not track” signal to websites. The Site does not respond differently or limit its practices under the terms of this Privacy Policy when you visit the Site with a browser that uses a “do not track” signal or similar mechanism.

Storage limits
7.6 Our retention periods for personal data are based on business needs and legal requirements. We retain personal data for as long as is necessary for the processing purpose(s) for which the information was collected, and any other permissible, related purpose. For example, we may retain certain transaction details and correspondence until the time limit for claims arising from the transaction has expired, or to comply with regulatory requirements regarding the retention of such data. When personal data is no longer needed, we either irreversibly anonymize the data (and we may further retain and use the anonymized information) or securely destroy the data.
