Personal information collected by ZeniMax is stored in secure operating environments that are not available to the public and is only accessible by authorized employees.  Whenever you enter sensitive information (such as a credit card payment information), that information is collected only on secured (https) webpages and is encrypted during transmission using secure socket layer technology (SSL).  

We also have security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control (i.e., maintain data quality). Before we allow website users to access their personal information, for example, we verify their identity by prompting them to submit information such as their login name and password.

We will retain your information for as long as permitted for legitimate business purposes.
