Security Safeguards

We use generally accepted technical and organizational measures to protect the Personal Data that we collect and process against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction, or other unauthorized access or disclosure. However, no method of transmission of information over wireless and wired networks is inherently secure, and we do not warrant the security of User Datasets or Personal Data or that private communications will always remain private when using our Services.

We also have procedures in place to manage any suspected data security breach. We will notify you and any applicable regulator of a data security breach where we are legally required to do so.

Retention of Your Personal Data

Except for User Datasets and Usage Data, we will retain Personal Data while you have an account with us or while we are providing Services to you in order to comply with applicable laws, keep accurate records, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, or for any other legally permissible purpose.

We will retain User Datasets indefinitely in order to enhance our Services, unless you have expressed a preference to withhold your data from training, or for any other legally permissible purpose. We will also retain Usage Data for internal analysis purposes. Usage Data is typically retained for a shorter period of time except when this data is used to strengthen the security or improve the functionality of our Services, or we are legally obligated to retain this data for longer time periods.

Transfer of Your Personal Data

Personal Data that you provide to us or that we collect as a result of your use of our Services will be stored and processed in the United States. For customers located in the United States, your data may be transferred outside your state where the data protection laws may differ than those from your jurisdiction.

Disclosure of Personal Information

We may disclose Personal Data as part of a proposed or actual merger, acquisition, or asset sale subject to a confidentiality agreement. We will provide you notice before your Personal Data is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
