- Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information against unauthorized access, use, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
However, no method of electronic storage or transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Therefore, while we take reasonable steps to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We may request reasonable information to verify the account before processing the deletion request.
Once the request has been verified and processed, we will delete the account and associated personal information within a reasonable period, except for information that we are required or permitted to retain for legitimate legal, regulatory, security, fraud-prevention, or record-keeping purposes.
Certain information that has been aggregated or anonymized may not be capable of being associated with an individual account and may therefore be retained.

The App is not specifically directed toward children.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable laws or requirements.
