information with such parties.
11. SECURITY
We treat data as an asset that must be protected against loss and unauthorized access. We employ many different security techniques
to protect such data from unauthorized access by members inside
and outside the company. We do not recommend transfer of sensitive
information (such as credit card number) and bank account details via
the Site to any third party. Users are recommended to do so offline, on
the phone or via personal emails. We follow generally accepted industry
standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during
transmission and once we receive it. However, “perfect security” does
not exist on the Internet. You therefore agree that any security breaches
beyond the control of our standard security procedures are at your sole
risk and discretion.
12. DISCLAIMER
We cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other
personal information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise
described in this Privacy Policy. Therefore, although we are committed to
protecting your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect,
that your personal information will always remain private. As a user of the
Site, you understand and agree that you assume all responsibility and risk
for your use of the website, the internet generally, and the documents you
post or access and for your conduct on and off the Site.
