Security of your Personal Information.
WENO secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. WENO uses the following methods for this purpose:

• During transmission we use encryption protocols and software.
• We do not store your credit card data. It is stored by a third-party credit card processor that follows the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) for handling credit card data.
• We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards when collecting, storing, and disclosing a customer’s personal information

We strive to take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or alteration of your personal information. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, you acknowledge that: (a) there are security and privacy limitations inherent to the Internet which are beyond our control; and (b) security, integrity, and privacy of any and all information and data exchanged through WENO’s Services cannot be guaranteed.

You hereby acknowledge that WENO is not a health or medical provider. WENO is a Business Associate, as defined under the Privacy, Security, Breach Notification, and Enforcement Rules at 45 CFR Part 160 and Part 164 ( “HIPAA”), and WENO maintains reasonable security measures – including encryption, granular access controls, and privacy and security training – to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of information on its Platform, in accordance with HIPAA. However, it is not possible to guarantee the security or integrity of information disclosed online. As no data transmission over the Internet is completely secure, we urge you to take every precaution to protect your personal data when you are sending Personal Information on the Internet. Because no physical or electronic security is impenetrable, by using WENO’s Services, you agree to assume all risks in connection with the information sent to us or collected by us.
