66. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?
We keep your personal information only for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice, unless:
- A longer retention period is required by law (for example, tax, accounting, or regulatory requirements), or
- A longer retention period is needed to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
When we no longer have a legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it. If this is not possible (for example, because information is stored in backup archives), we will securely store your information and isolate it from further processing until deletion is possible.
77. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?
We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the personal information we process. These measures may include:
- Encryption in transit and/or at rest (where appropriate)

- Network and application security monitoring
- Regular security assessments and audits

Our Services are not directed to, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from, children under the age of 18 (or other age as defined by local law).
If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child without appropriate consent or authorization, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information as soon as possible.

If you believe we are unlawfully processing your personal information, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
1010. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES
Many web browsers and some mobile operating systems and applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your preference not to have information about your online browsing activities monitored and collected.
At this time, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As a result, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online.
If a standard for online tracking is adopted in the future that we must follow, we will describe our practices in an updated version of this Privacy Notice.
