Security
We are constantly deploying and updating our technical and organizational security measures to protect against loss, misuse or alteration of Personal Information that we have collected or received from a third-party. To the extent permitted by law, Snaile may review, scan or analyze communications for fraud prevention, investigation, regulatory compliance, risk assessment, research, product development, and customer support purposes. We use industry-standard encryption technologies when transferring and receiving Personal Information, and network access control technology to limit access to the systems on which Personal Information is stored, and we monitor for possible vulnerabilities and attacks. Despite the measures outlined above, no method of information transmission or information storage is 100% secure or error-free, so we unfortunately cannot guarantee absolute security. If you become aware that there has been a breach in security of any of the Personal Information that we store or that is stored by our third-party service providers, please contact us via the instructions provided in the “Contact Us” section below.
Opting Out of Communications

We will endeavour to respond to your opt-out request promptly, but we ask that you please allow us a reasonable time to process your request. Please note that if you opt-out from receiving marketing-related emails, we may still need to send you communications about your use of our products or services, or other matters.
