7. Data security

The hosting service for these digital assets provides us with the online platform through which these services can be offered to you. Your data may be stored using this hosting provider's data storage, databases, and general applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall and offer secure HTTPS access to most areas of their services.

Notwithstanding the measures and efforts taken by these services and hosting providers, no absolute protection and security of the data you upload, publish, or otherwise share with these services or others can or will be guaranteed.

For this reason, we ask you to set strong passwords and, if possible, not to transmit any confidential information to these services or others if you believe that its disclosure could cause you significant or lasting harm. Since email and instant messaging are not considered secure forms of communication, you are also asked not to share any confidential information via these channels.
