Each third-party service has its own privacy policy governing the use of your information. We encourage you to review their policies.

6. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information, including HTTPS encryption, secure cookie handling (HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite), rate limiting, CAPTCHA verification, and security headers via Helmet.
