ssbett implements industry-standard technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction:

• Encryption: All data transmission between your device and ssbett servers is encrypted using SSL/TLS protocols (256-bit encryption). Sensitive data stored in our databases is encrypted at rest.

• Monitoring and Response: Automated fraud detection systems monitor for suspicious activity. Security incidents are logged, investigated, and reported to affected users and regulators as required by Philippine law.

While ssbett implements robust security measures, no system is completely secure. You acknowledge that data transmission over the internet carries inherent risks, and you use ssbett Services at your own risk. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity conducted through your account.

6. Data Retention

ssbett retains your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Specific retention periods include:
