Here’s an improved version of the Information Security section with a clearer and more professional tone:
7. Information Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect personal data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Our security protocols include encryption, firewalls, access controls, and regular audits of our data storage and processing practices.
All collected information is securely stored in a controlled database, housed on protected servers with restricted access. These servers are secured behind firewalls, and access is strictly limited to authorized personnel. Despite these precautions, no system is completely immune to security risks. While we take every reasonable step to safeguard your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security. Any data transmitted over the internet carries inherent risks, including interception by unauthorized parties.
We continuously update our security measures in response to evolving threats. Additionally, our Privacy Policy may be revised over time to reflect necessary updates. However, any changes will remain consistent with the principles under which the data was originally collected.
8. Data Retention
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, including order processing, legal compliance, fraud prevention, and improving our services.
-
- Order & Account Information: Stored as long as your account is active or as required for record-keeping, tax, or legal obligations.
- Marketing Data: Retained until you opt out of receiving communications.
- Cookies & Tracking Data: Stored based on browser settings or until manually cleared.
When no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize your data in accordance with industry standards. If you wish to delete your personal information, you can contact us at support@lyvn.in for assistance.
9. Changes to This Policy
We reserve the right to update, modify, or change this Privacy Policy, along with any terms, conditions, or rules, at any time. These updates may be made to reflect changes in business practices, legal requirements, or security standards.
Any modifications will take effect immediately upon being posted on our website. By continuing to use our website or make purchases, you acknowledge and agree to the updated terms. We encourage visitors and customers to review this policy periodically for any changes.
