Our platform displays user ratings and reviews for advocates. When you submit a rating or review, please be aware that this information may be displayed publicly on the advocate’s profile. We reserve the right to moderate, edit, or remove reviews that violate our community guidelines, contain false or defamatory content, or are otherwise inappropriate.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, or destruction. These include encrypted data transmission (HTTPS), secure server infrastructure, and access controls.
