Security of personal data

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk so that the processing complies with the GDPR and applicable date protection laws.

These measures must provide for a level of security considered appropriate considering the technical standards and the type of personal data processed but also:

  • the state of the art and implementation costs.
  • the nature, scope, context, and purposes of processing; and
  • the likelihood and severity of the risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons.

Security requirements are continually evolving, and effective security requires frequent assessment and regular improvement of outdated security measures. We are committed to continuously evaluate, strengthen, and improve the measures we implement.
