We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to help protect your information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration.
However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we take care to choose reputable providers and to limit access to your information within our own systems.
