We are committed to ensuring the security of your personal information. Herbazora implements a variety of security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include:

  • Data Minimization: We only collect and store personal data that is necessary for the purposes outlined in this policy.

While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal data, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
