Privacy is our ability to control access to our personal information. Know that what you share online can last a lifetime:

• Data can be stored indefinitely and used in unwelcome ways.
• Each year, data breaches continue to grow in size and scope, exposing consumers' private data and valuable business information assets.
• Personal data is like currency. Value it. Protect it.

Do a safety checkup!
