We do not sell your personal data. We share information only in the following circumstances:

5. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including:

  • HTTPS enforced across all pages and API endpoints
  • PostgreSQL database hosted on Render with SSL-encrypted connections
  • Role-based access control ensuring users only access their own data

Despite these measures, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We encourage you to use strong, unique passwords.
