5. Data Security
We implement strict security measures to protect your personal data:

- Encrypted Communication: All communication uses HTTPS/TLS encryption.
- Role-Based Access Controls: Administrative access is gated by role-based authentication and logged in an admin audit trail.
- Content Security Policy (CSP): Our website enforces a strict CSP to prevent XSS and unauthorized resource loading.
- Rate Limiting: Login, registration, and checkout endpoints are protected by distributed rate limiting to prevent brute-force attacks.
