Security, Storage and Retention of Personal Information We Collect
Security
Mrtechexpert is committed to protecting the security of your personal information. However, while we take reasonable precautions to guard the personal information we collect, no security system is impenetrable.
While no service is completely secure, Mrtechexpert takes precautionary measures to help prevent information about you from loss, theft, misuse and unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. For example, we store the personal data you provide on computer systems that have limited access and that are in controlled facilities. We also ensure that our third-party vendors provide adequate security measures. Additionally, your data is protected with encryption during transition over the Internet.
