How We Protect Your Information?
An external PCI compliant payment gateway handles all Credit Card transactions. At the moment of writing this is PayPal. This may change in the future. All financial transactions are processed through a gateway provider and are not stored or processed on our servers. EcoMatcher’s platform uses a three-pronged approach of people, processes and technology from day one. This approach ensures that your online activities are both secure and optimized for user experience. All of our cyber security controls, policies and procedures are periodically audited to ensure that we are at the forefront of the cyber risks landscape. Your personal information is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of persons who have special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep the information confidential. We do not allow unauthorised access to these customer accounts to ensure that they are kept private and confidential. In addition, all sensitive information you supply is encrypted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. We use regular Malware Scanning. We implement a variety of security measures when a user places an order, enters, submits, or accesses their information, to maintain the safety of your personal information.
