Embedded Content: Content (e.g., videos, tweets) embedded from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content.
5. Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. However, no internet transmission or electronic storage method is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
