We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as taxes, accounting, DOT or other legal requirements). No purpose in this Policy will require us keeping your personal information for longer than 10 years.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

The security of your personal information is important to Lomat. We have implemented administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect the personal information Lomat receives from users of its App, as well as other personal information on Lomat’s servers. As discussed above, we require third parties with whom we share personal information to adopt similar precautions to protect personal information.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure.

We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the App.
