4. DATA RETENTION
We retain your personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, to provide the Services, to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements. The specific retention period depends on the nature of the information and the context in which it was collected. When personal information is no longer needed for any of these purposes, we will delete or de-identify it in accordance with our data retention practices. Account information is generally retained for as long as your account remains active and for a reasonable period thereafter. Billing records are retained as required by applicable tax and financial regulations. Automatically collected usage data is typically retained in identifiable form for no more than twenty-four (24) months.
5. DATA SECURITY
We implement commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and destruction. These measures include encryption of data in transit and at rest, access controls, regular security assessments, and employee training.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for any activity that occurs under your account.
