4. Data Security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed. All sensitive health and contact data transmitted via our web forms are protected using AES-256-CBC application-level encryption before being stored in our secure database. Access is strictly limited to authorized personnel only. We enforce HTTPS/TLS for all data in transit.
