• Any personal information included within the press release content (such as spokesperson names, contact details, or company information) will be treated as public information intended for media distribution.

You are solely responsible for ensuring that your press release content does not contain any personal information that you do not wish to be made publicly available.

We take the security of your personal information seriously and implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect it, including:

• SSL/TLS Encryption: All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is encrypted using industry-standard SSL/TLS protocols.

• Access Controls: Access to personal information is restricted to authorised personnel who require it to perform their duties, and who are subject to strict confidentiality obligations.
• Regular Monitoring: We regularly monitor our systems for potential vulnerabilities and security breaches.

However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.

• Transaction Records: Payment and transaction records are retained for the period required by applicable tax and accounting regulations.
• Usage Data: Anonymised usage and analytics data may be retained indefinitely for statistical analysis and service improvement purposes.

You may request the deletion of your account data at any time by contacting us at hello@tsnewswire.com. Please note that deletion of your account data does not affect press releases that have already been distributed.
