How does Adspur ensure the security of Personal Information?
Adspur works to maintain your confidence and trust in us and has therefore implemented physical, technical, and administrative measures designed to secure Personal Information from accidental loss, unauthorized access, use, alteration and disclosure. However, the safety and security of your information is also dependent upon you. We store and process your information on our servers located within the EU (Ireland) and the United States and use other computing facilities around the globe.
Where Adspur has given you (or where you have chosen) a password or access code which enables you to access certain parts of Adspur’s website and similar, you are responsible for keeping this password and/or access code confidential. You should not share your password or access code with anyone and you should use all reasonable methods to ensure that there is no unauthorized use. You therefore authorize Adspur to act upon instructions and information received from any person that enters your user ID and password and you agree to be fully responsible for all use and any actions that may take place during the use of your account. You also agree to promptly notify Adspur of any information you have provided which has changed.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although Adspur will take reasonable steps to protect your Personal Information, Adspur cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to Adspur’s site; any transmission is at your own risk.
Adspur maintains security standards that are designed to protect your information as it is transmitted from your computer to our network. This technology is called Secure Socket Layer (SSL). SSL is a leading security protocol for data transfer on the Internet and helps to protect the safety and confidentiality of your online banking information.
You have a role in helping Adspur by safeguarding your information from others. You have several options when deciding how you can best protect your Personal Information. One option is simply not to volunteer it. The Federal Trade Commission’s websites (www.ftc.gov, www.ftc.gov/idtheft, and www.onguardonline.gov) offer useful information about how to protect your Personal Information.
How long does Adspur store and retain Personal Information?
We will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services. If you wish to cancel your account or request that we no longer use your information to provide you services, you may delete your account here. We may retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Consistent with these requirements, we will try to delete your information quickly upon request. Please note, however, that there might be latency in deleting information from our servers and backed-up versions might exist after deletion.
