NABNE may also automatically collect certain technical information, such as system activity, device information, and usage data, to support platform functionality, security, and performance.
2. How We Use Information
   NABNE uses personal information to create and manage user accounts, process examination registrations and related services, verify identity, maintain examination security, detect and prevent fraud or misconduct, and investigate potential irregular behavior. NABNE may also use personal information to enforce examination security policies, make determinations regarding examination results and candidate eligibility, communicate with you regarding your account or examinations, administer and improve the platform and services, and comply with legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations.
3. Disclosure of Information
   NABNE may share personal information as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including with testing vendors such as Prometric to administer examinations, with regulatory authorities or licensing bodies where required or authorized, and with service providers that support NABNE operations. Such disclosures are made only as necessary and are subject to appropriate contractual and confidentiality safeguards.

NABNE may also use and review personal information internally for examination security, integrity, and enforcement purposes and may limit disclosure of certain information where necessary to protect examination content and security processes. NABNE does not sell personal information.

2. Data Retention
   NABNE retains personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including administration of examinations, compliance with legal and regulatory obligations, and resolution of disputes. Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information and applicable requirements. When personal information is no longer required, it is securely deleted or de-identified in accordance with NABNE policies.
3. Security
   NABNE uses reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. In the event of a security incident involving personal information, NABNE will take appropriate steps in accordance with applicable law. However, no system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
