As a result, personal information may be subject to the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is processed and may be accessible to courts, law-enforcement agencies, or other authorities in that jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law.

We use contractual, organizational, and other safeguards where appropriate to protect personal information handled by service providers.

12. Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and for legitimate business, legal, accounting, tax, security, dispute-resolution, and record-keeping requirements.
