You may update or correct your account information by accessing your account settings within LeafSense. You may also delete your account by contacting us at zhiwushibie9031@163.com.

Encryption of data transmission and storage.
Access controls to limit who can access your information.
Regular security assessments and updates to our systems.
Training our employees on data security practices.

However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you believe your account has been compromised, please contact us immediately at zhiwushibie9031@163.com.

If we make significant changes, we will notify you by email (if you have provided us with your email address) or by posting a notice in LeafSense before the changes take effect.
