We are committed to safeguarding the data collected through the AMS platform and/or mobile application using industry best practices for data security. While no system can guarantee absolute security, we employ robust measures to protect your and your clients’ data, ensuring the highest level of protection reasonably possible:
- Data Encryption: We use industry-standard encryption techniques to secure data in transit and at rest. This includes HTTPS for secure communication and encryption of sensitive data.
- Access Control: Access to your data is restricted to authorized personnel only. We implement strict access controls, user authentication, and role-based permissions to ensure that only authorized individuals can access and modify data.
- Regular Security Audits: We conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments to identify and mitigate potential security risks. This includes monitoring for unauthorized access and potential security breaches.
- Data Backup and Recovery: We maintain data backup systems to ensure data integrity and availability. In the event of data loss or corruption, we have recovery processes in place to minimize downtime and data loss.
- Secure Development Practices: Our development processes adhere to secure coding practices. We continuously update and patch our systems to address security vulnerabilities promptly.
- Employee Training: Our staff undergoes security training to raise awareness and ensure the protection of data. We have strict security policies in place to govern employee behavior regarding data handling.
- Third-Party Security: When engaging with third-party service providers, we ensure they meet strict security and privacy standards to protect your data.
- User Responsibility: We encourage users to take responsibility for data security by using strong, unique passwords, enabling multi-factor authentication when available, and maintaining the security of their accounts.
- Data Retention: We retain data for the necessary legal and business purposes, and we have procedures for securely disposing of data when it is no longer required.
While we take extensive precautions to protect your data, it is important to remember that no system is entirely immune to security risks. We recommend that you also take steps to secure your data, such as using strong passwords, keeping your login credentials confidential, and promptly reporting any suspicious activities related to your account.
