Security

Recognising the importance of the security of electronic transactions, our company has taken all the necessary measures to provide payment services with the maximum possible security. From the beginning to the end of your connection (session), all your information and personal data are encrypted using the 128-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption protocol.
When you pay using Paypal, all information between your computer and Paypal’s systems is encrypted using a secure key. Information is sent and received in encrypted form to ensure the security of your transactions. The same principles that apply to bank transactions also apply to Paypal, so all information remains confidential.

Server and data encryption

Data is transferred between your device or browser and our servers using the 256-bit Advanced Encryption Security Layer (TLS) protocol. This ensures that sensitive information such as usernames, emails, passwords and uploaded documents cannot be intercepted in transit.

Regular security updates

The operating system and software on our servers are regularly updated to ensure that any vulnerabilities that could affect the security of our systems are addressed in a timely manner.

Network and application firewall

The network firewall blocks access to suspicious areas and allows only safe connections. The application firewall automatically monitors and checks all parameters for validity, preventing overloading or malicious activity.

Internal Procedures

We continually review and adapt our policies and procedures. Access to our internal systems is restricted to authorised individuals and we have implemented measures such as two-factor authentication and updates to our network internet use policy.

Technical and Organizational Measures

Appropriate technical and organisational measures have been documented to protect your data, taking into account the purpose of the processing and the technology used. These include privacy, personal data protection, access control, information classification and management, physical and environmental security for end users, backups, anti-malware, cryptographic security measures and communications security. Vulnerability management, disaster recovery and business continuity processes are continuously improved through internal audits.
