the number of users who searched for a particular term, for example.
Such information does not identify you.
Information Security
We take appropriate security
measures to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized
alteration, disclosure, or destruction of data. These include internal
reviews of our data collection, storage, and processing practices and
security measures, as well as physical security measures to guard
against unauthorized access to systems where we store personal data.
We

confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including
termination and criminal prosecution if they fail to meet these
obligations.
Data Integrity
We process personal
information only for the purposes for which it was collected and in

notice. We review our data collection, storage, and processing
practices to ensure that we only collect, store, and process the
personal information needed to provide or improve our services. We take
reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we process is
