2. INFORMATION STORAGE, SECURITY AND DELETION. 

Busy Boda takes all reasonable steps to protect the personal information it holds from misuse and loss and from unauthorized access, modification and disclosure. The Personal Information and Usage Information we collect is securely stored within our databases, and we use standard, industry-wide, commercially reasonable security practices such as encryption, firewalls and SSL (Secure Socket Layers) for protecting your information – such as geolocation information. This also includes the use of access control via unique user passwords. However, as effective as encryption technology is, no security system is impenetrable and the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. We cannot guarantee the security of our databases, nor can we guarantee that information you supply won’t be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the Internet or wireless communication, and any information you transmit to the Company you do at your own risk. We recommend that you not disclose your password to anyone. Busy Boda will not be responsible for any access or change made to your personal information occurring as a result of you disclosing your password to a third party, or through any unauthorized access. You can also help us keep your personal information secure by ensuring that any password you use on our web site is kept strictly confidential, and by logging off when you have finished using a shared computer. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of the Service, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.  Although we will do our best to protect your Information, we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to the Service; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your Information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorized access.

Busy Boda retains your information while your account remains active, unless you request deletion of your information or account. In some cases we may retain certain information about you as required by law or other purposes as described in this section even if you delete your account if there is an unresolved issue relating to your account, such as an outstanding credit on your account or an unresolved claim or dispute; if we are required to by applicable law; and/or in aggregated and/or anonymized form and where it is if necessary for its legitimate business interests, such as fraud prevention and enhancing users’ safety and security. For example, if Busy Boda shuts down a user’s account because of unsafe behavior or security incidents, Busy Boda may retain certain information about that account to prevent that user from opening a new Busy Boda account in the future.

22. COMPLAINTS AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION.
