These providers are only given access to information reasonably necessary to perform their services.

We may also disclose information where required by law or where reasonably necessary to protect the rights, safety, or security of Run Island, its users, or others.

5. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or loss.

However, no website, database, or method of electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

You are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential and for notifying us if you believe your account has been accessed without authorization.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, maintain your account, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and protect the security of the platform.

If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize associated personal information where reasonably possible, except where information must be retained for legal, security, fraud-prevention, or legitimate administrative purposes.

Run Island is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children where parental or guardian consent would be required by applicable law.

If you believe a child has provided personal information to us without appropriate consent, please contact us so that we can review and, where appropriate, remove the information.

As a result, information may be processed or stored in different jurisdictions. Where required, we take reasonable steps to ensure personal information continues to receive appropriate protection.
