Data Protection
We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information:

- Regular security assessments and penetration testing are conducted to identify and address potential vulnerabilities.
Authentication and Access
We employ the following authentication and access controls:
- Strong password requirements with secure password hashing.
- Two-factor authentication (2FA) is available and recommended for all accounts.
- Automatic session timeouts after periods of inactivity.
- Role-based access controls to ensure users only have access to the data they need.
