Protection of Your Information
Second Signal uses secure server software (SSL), firewalls, and end-to-end encryption to protect your PII from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
We will retain PII for as long as necessary to provide our services, but no later than 6 years following termination of Services. We will retain and use PII as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

We will disclose your information in response to valid legal process, for example, in response to a court order, a subpoena or other legal request for information, and/or to comply with applicable legal and regulatory reporting requirements. We also may disclose your information in response to a law enforcement agency’s request or other request for information from the U.S. or other government entities, or where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, or to verify or enforce compliance with the policies governing our products and/or services and with applicable laws, or as otherwise required or permitted by law or consistent with legal requirements. In addition, we may, upon notice to you and/or your Clinical Partner, transfer your information to an entity or individual that acquires, buys, or merges with Second Signal, or our other business units.
