7. Data Security

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. We maintain appropriate administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect Personal Data against accidental or unlawful destruction, accidental loss, unauthorized alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access, misuse, and any other unlawful form of processing of the Personal Data in our possession. This includes, for example, firewalls, password protection and other access and authentication controls. We use SSL technology to encrypt data during transmission through public internet, and we also employ application-layer security features to further anonymize Personal Data.
However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. We cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. We also cannot guarantee that such information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards.

We will retain and use information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements as follows:
Client information is kept for the time of the relationship and thereafter for administrative and legal or tax purposes. Personal client information not relating to legal or contract information is deleted after 3 years.
Contact information is retained until the relationship has ended. This means that a contact has not been reading any of the informational emails Yonder has sent. Then it will be deleted after 3 years.
