We have implemented appropriate security measures to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of personal information and to prevent risks of unauthorized or unlawful access, modification, destruction, or disclosure of information.

We will promptly notify individuals of any breach of privacy that would result in the disclosure of their personal information, and we will report such incidents to the relevant authorities as required by applicable law.
