However, despite our best efforts, no security policy, procedures or practices can adequately protect against all types of threats or data losses and no type of data transmission method is impenetrable to interception. While we follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the PFI and PII submitted to us (both during your submission and after we receive it), please be advised that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal information and PII, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. In the event of a breach, we have policies for immediate measures to inform our management and legal team and take immediate action to minimize the impact of the breach. We are committed to ensure compliance with any rights you may have to know in the event of a breach of your information that is on our servers. You understand that we may utilize a third-party Customer Relationship Manager (CRM) provider and software. In such case, you understand that while we take all precautions and contractually require our CRM to meet certain industry standards and all applicable privacy laws, but we cannot control any CRM data breach which is controlled by the third-party.

    8. Retention. We retain personal data for as long as necessary to provide the Services and fulfill the transactions you have requested, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and other legitimate and lawful business purposes. Because these needs can vary for different data types in the context of different Services, actual retention periods can vary significantly based on criteria such as user expectations or consent, the sensitivity of the data, the availability of automated controls that enable users to delete data, and our legal or contractual obligations.
    9. Declining Requests. You understand that we may decline requests where granting the request would be prohibited by law, could adversely affect the privacy or rights of another person, would reveal a trade secret or other confidential information, would interfere with a legal or business obligation that requires retention or use of the data, or because the data at issue is not covered under the law you are asserting. Also, where permitted by law if you send us a request to exercise your rights or the choices in this section, we may charge a fee or decline requests in certain cases.
    10. Non-Discrimination. You have the right to not be discriminated against for exercising any of your privacy rights.
