We have implemented measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. All information you provide to us is stored securely using standard industry practices. Any payment transactions and highly sensitive information will be encrypted.
The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Platform, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.
Be careful what you post or send through our Platform. Information you share in public areas may be viewed by any user of the Platform.
