We take security seriously. Measures include:

- HTTPS across all endpoints
- Limited employee access to production systems
- Regular monitoring and auditing
However, no system is 100% secure. We encourage users to use strong passwords and revoke third-party access if suspicious activity is detected.

- We retain your data as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service.
- You may request account deletion at any time by emailing: support@awedienceapp.com
