managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we
collect from your using of Xiaomi products and services and on

make sure they are encrypted using Secure Sockets Layer ("SSL")
and other algorithms.

information, or remove the means by which the personal information
can be associated with particular individuals, as soon as it is
reasonable to assume that the purpose for which that personal

the personal information. If further processing is for archiving
purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research
purposes or statistical purposes according to the applicable laws, the
