3. Data retention
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including business communication, service delivery, recruitment activities, and compliance with legal or regulatory obligations. Retention periods vary depending on the nature of the information, the purpose of processing, and applicable legal requirements.
- Business inquiries and client communications: retained for a reasonable period to support ongoing or potential engagements and to maintain accurate business records.

When personal information is no longer necessary, we take appropriate measures to securely delete, anonymize, or otherwise dispose of the data in accordance with industry standards and applicable laws.
4. Children
Our website and services are not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 13 (or the applicable minimum age required by law in your jurisdiction). If we become aware that personal information has been collected from a child without appropriate parental consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete such information promptly.
5. Security of your personal data
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to safeguard personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include secure systems, access controls, and internal policies designed to protect the confidentiality and integrity of personal data. Access to personal information is limited to authorized personnel who require it for legitimate business purposes.
We regularly review and update our security practices to ensure personal information is handled responsibly and in compliance with applicable legal requirements. Employees, contractors, and service providers with access to personal data are subject to confidentiality obligations and may use such information only in accordance with our instructions.
While we take reasonable steps to protect personal information, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we remain committed to continuously improving our safeguards.

- Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of assets, where personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.
7. Your rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, review, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your personal information, and to object to certain processing activities. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time.
