7. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect user data. No online system is completely secure, so users should use strong passwords and protect their accounts.

Depending on your location, including under GDPR or LGPD, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or request portability of your personal data. To make a request, contact us by email.
