In connection with the provision of the Services, Customer is the party that determines the purposes and means for which Personal Data is processed (the "Data Controller"), whereas Leaning Technologies processes Personal Data in accordance with the Data Controller's instructions and on behalf of the Data Controller (as a "Data Processor").

As the Data Processor, Leaning Technologies agrees to process Customer Data only (i) on Customer's behalf for the purpose of providing and supporting the Services; and (ii) in compliance with the written instructions received from Customer and applicable Data Protection Laws.

9. Our Commitment To Data Security

Leaning Technologies uses commercially reasonable physical, managerial, and technical safeguards to preserve the integrity and security of your personal information. However, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.

11. Data Retention and Deletion

Logging information:

Non-personally identifiable information collected from end-users of Customer's Website or Application, sent through the BrowserPod API will be retained for a minimum of one year, after which it will be deleted, except where retention is required under applicable laws. In such cases, the Data will be isolated and protected from any further processing except as required by law.

Anonymized Data:

For clarity, Leaning Technologies may continue to process information derived from Customer Data that has been deidentified, anonymized, and/or aggregated such that the data is no longer considered Personal Data under applicable Data Protection Laws, for the purpose of improving Leaning Technologies' systems and services.
