We value your privacy and only share your information in limited circumstances. Primarily, we share your data with third-party service providers who assist us in operating our website and delivering our services. These providers include hosting companies, payment processors, and customer support platforms. Each provider is carefully selected and required to comply with strict data protection standards to ensure your information remains secure.
We may also share your information with business partners and affiliates who offer complementary services or products that may interest you.

We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes without your explicit consent.
In certain situations, we may be required to disclose your information to comply with legal obligations, such as responding to subpoenas, court orders, or other legal processes. We may also disclose your data to protect our rights, property, or safety, as well as that of our users and the public.

At Auckden, we take the security of your data seriously and implement a range of measures to protect it from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. We use industry-standard encryption technologies to safeguard your data during transmission and storage. Additionally, we regularly review our security practices and update them as necessary to address emerging threats and vulnerabilities. Our servers are hosted in secure facilities, and access to your data is restricted to authorized personnel only.
In addition to technical safeguards, we also implement administrative and physical security measures. This includes conducting regular security training for our employees, ensuring that they understand the importance of protecting your data and are aware of best practices for maintaining security. We also conduct background checks on employees who have access to sensitive information and implement strict access controls to limit data access to only those who need it to perform their job duties.
Despite our best efforts, no method of data transmission or storage is completely secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information. We encourage you to take steps to protect your personal information, such as using strong passwords, regularly updating your software, and being cautious about sharing your data online. If you suspect any unauthorized access to your account or have any concerns about data security, please contact our support team immediately so we can take appropriate action.
We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. This means we will keep your data for as long as you maintain an account with Auckden or as long as necessary to provide you with our services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Once your data is no longer needed for these purposes, we will securely delete or anonymize it to ensure your privacy is protected.
In certain cases, we may retain your information for a longer period if it is necessary to protect our legal rights or interests. For example, we may keep data related to transactions or disputes for a longer period to comply with regulatory requirements or to defend against potential legal claims. We will ensure that any extended retention of your data is done in accordance with applicable data protection laws and regulations.
We also periodically review the data we hold and assess whether it is still necessary for the purposes for which it was collected. If we determine that certain data is no longer needed, we will take steps to securely delete or anonymize it. If you have any questions about our data retention practices or if you would like to request the deletion of your data, please contact our support team. We are committed to respecting your privacy and ensuring that your data is only retained for as long as necessary.
