You can control vendor data sharing through your privacy settings. By default, your information is only shared with vendors you explicitly connect with.

We require all third-party vendors to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party vendors to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

Our security measures include:

• Encryption of sensitive data both in transit and at rest
• Regular security assessments and penetration testing
• Secure authentication processes
• Regular monitoring for suspicious activities
• Employee training on data protection best practices

We maintain appropriate data collection, storage, and processing practices and security measures to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction of your personal information.
