We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information, including encryption in transit (TLS/SSL), secure authentication, and access controls. Payment information is handled exclusively by Stripe, which is PCI-DSS compliant. However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
