5. Data Retention
We retain 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.
Account information is retained for the duration of your account's existence and for a period thereafter to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
Transaction records are retained for a minimum of seven (7) years for tax and accounting purposes.
When you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your information within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.
6. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to help protect information about you from loss, theft, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.
We use industry-standard encryption (TLS) for data in transit and encrypt sensitive data at rest. Access to personal data is restricted to employees and contractors who need it to perform their job functions.
However, no security system is impenetrable and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of our systems. In the event of a data breach that affects your rights and freedoms, we will notify you and the relevant authorities within 72 hours as required by applicable law.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information:

Correction: You have the right to request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete information about you.
Deletion: You have the right to request that we delete your personal information in certain circumstances.
Portability: You have the right to receive your personal information in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.
Objection: You have the right to object to our processing of your personal information in certain circumstances.
Withdrawal of Consent: Where we rely on your consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at privacy@anawanta.net. We will respond to your request within 30 days.
8. Children's Privacy
Our platform is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you become aware that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, we will take steps to remove that information from our servers.
9. International Data Transfers
Your information may be transferred to, and maintained on, computers located outside of your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction where data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction.
If you are located outside of Egypt and choose to provide information to us, please note that we transfer the information to Egypt and process it there.
Where required by applicable law, we ensure that any international transfer of personal data is subject to appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses approved by relevant authorities.

For significant changes, we will provide a more prominent notice, such as an email notification or an in-app alert, prior to the change becoming effective.
