We have implemented reasonable security mechanisms to protect your User Data that is maintained on our servers from loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Examples of these security mechanisms include limited and password-protected access, high security public/private keys, encryption on processed data, and SSL encryption to protect transmission of data.

In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us.
