7. Data Security
The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is not 100% secure.
Please familiarise yourself and understand the following limitation of data security online:
- Inherent Risks of Internet Transmission: When data is transmitted over the Internet, it passes through various networks and servers, each of which could potentially be a point of vulnerability. Despite the use of encryption and secure protocols like HTTPS, there is always a small risk that data could be intercepted, altered, or accessed by unauthorized parties.
- Vulnerabilities in Electronic Storage: Similarly, storing data electronically involves certain risks. While measures like encryption, secure passwords, and physical security protocols are employed to protect data stored on servers, no system is impervious to breaches. The possibility of software bugs, hardware failures, or sophisticated cyber-attacks means that absolute security cannot be guaranteed.
- Evolving Nature of Cyber Threats: The landscape of cybersecurity is constantly changing, with new threats emerging regularly. Hackers and cybercriminals develop new methods to exploit vulnerabilities in systems, making it challenging to ensure perpetual security.
- Commitment to Data Security: Despite these challenges, we take the security of your data very seriously. We implement a range of technological and procedural safeguards designed to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. These measures are continually reviewed and updated in response to evolving threats.
- User Responsibility: It’s also important for users to be aware of their role in protecting their data. This includes using strong, unique passwords, being cautious of phishing attempts, and ensuring their own devices are secure.
- Continuous Monitoring and Improvement: We are committed to regularly monitoring our systems for potential vulnerabilities and to continually enhancing our security practices. Our aim is to stay ahead of potential threats and provide the most secure experience possible for our users.
- Transparency and Responsiveness: In the unlikely event of a data breach, we are committed to promptly notifying affected individuals and taking appropriate steps to mitigate any potential harm.
