Below are the key mechanisms we have implemented to protect your information:
Encryption
All sensitive data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using HTTPS and TLS protocols, ensuring that data is secure during transmission. User passwords are not stored in plaintext. Instead, we store only a secure hash (SHA1). This means that even if someone gains access to our database, they cannot retrieve your actual password

We perform daily backups of our databases to ensure that data can be recovered in case of any unforeseen events.
Access Control
Access control mechanisms are implemented for ensuring only authorized employees can access sensitive data. Our customers can only access information they are authorized to view.
Network Security
We use HTTPS for secure communication, and our network security protocols include configuring whitelists. This means that only specific individuals with defined permissions can access particular parts of our system.
