Human Power LLC takes reasonable and appropriate measures to protect personal data in accordance with applicable data protection laws and this Privacy Notice. However, data subjects acknowledge that no system, technology, or security measure can guarantee absolute protection against all risks.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, HumanPower shall not be held liable for:

4. damages arising from the use of digital platforms, electronic communications, or recruitment tools, where HumanPower has implemented reasonable security measures.
