All third-party partners are vetted for privacy compliance.

You can request deletion of your account or information at any time by contacting hello@myaddison.app.

7. Data Security

We use encryption, secure servers, and access-restricted databases to protect your information.
While we take reasonable precautions, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of your data.
