This security policy is incorporated into and subject to the usage Terms & Conditions governing the use of Apptivo, available at http://www.apptivo.com/terms-conditions
Security of your data
We use a combination of the following:
- Firewalls – Network devices that block unauthorized access while permitting authorized communications
- Encryption techniques –Encryption is the process of transforming information (referred to as plaintext) using an algorithm (called cipher) to make it unreadable to anyone except those possessing special knowledge, usually referred to as a key
- Authentication procedures
- Process and procedural controls
among others, to maintain the security of your online session and to protect Apptivo accounts, your data and systems from unauthorized access. When you register, Apptivo requires a password from you for your privacy and security. Apptivo uses industry-standard 128-bit secure socket layer (SSL) encryption to protect data transmission between your browser and our servers.
Physical Security
Our servers are in a secure facility. Access requires multiple levels of authentication, including biometrics (hand print scan) procedures. Security personnel monitor the system 7 days a week, 24 hours a day.
We enforce physical access controls to our buildings.
Processes and Procedures
Our databases are protected from general employee access both physically and logically. We encrypt your password so that your password cannot be recovered, even by us. All backup drives and tapes also are encrypted. No employee may put any sensitive content on any insecure machine. We also ensure that all copied sensitive data are destroyed, if we download them to troubleshoot user problems. However, it is important to understand that these precautions apply only to our service and applications. We don’t exercise any control over how your information is stored, maintained or displayed by third parties.
Secure, encrypted communications
From the time you submit your Login ID and Password, communications between your computer and Apptivo are encrypted using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL3) technology. SSL enables client and server applications to communicate in a way that is designed to prevent eavesdropping, tampering and message forgery.
Login ID & Password
We provide indicators to indicate the strength of your password. Please ensure that your password strength is good. We also recommend that you change your password periodically. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your Login ID and Password. You may not provide these credentials to any third party. If you believe that they have been stolen or been made known to others, you must change your password immediately through the preferences section. You should also report the incident to us by sending an email to security@apptivo.com.
