3. Security
We are committed to safeguarding your data and security is a priority. We attempt to make our site and services as secure as possible, so we use industry standard (or better) security measures to protect the sensitive information under our control. We currently run the best-in-class SOC III compliant data centers and hold ourselves to the highest encryption standards. This includes limiting access to data and using a variety of information security measures, including encryption technology, such as Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), to protect your personal sensitive information. We do, however, recommend that you do not use unsecure channels to communicate sensitive or confidential information to us. For more information about our IT infrastructure and security, please request our due diligence package.
HP also maintains physical and procedural safeguards and requires those to whom we disclose Personal Information (including our employees and service providers) to do the same. The measures that we use are designed to provide an appropriate level of security to the risk.
