8. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including providing services, maintaining project and payment records, addressing warranties or disputes, complying with legal and tax obligations, preventing fraud, and enforcing agreements. Retention periods may vary based on the type of information and the reason it was collected.

9. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. No website, storage system, or method of electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
