My site may contain links to third-party websites. I are not responsible for their privacy practices or content.
2. Security
I implement robust security measures to protect your information from loss, misuse, or unauthorized alteration.
While I adhere to industry standards for data security, no electronic transmission or storage method is 100% secure. Therefore, I cannot guarantee absolute security.

Whenever legally permissible, I will notify you of such disclosures.
