Security

I-am.am takes precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline. Whenever we collect sensitive information (e.g. credit card information), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a lock icon in the address bar and looking for “https” at the beginning of the address of the webpage.

While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers and servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment. This is all done to prevent any loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, or modification of the user’s personal information under our control.

The company also uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) for authentication and private communications to build users’ trust and confidence in the internet and website use by providing simple and secure communication of credit card and personal information.

We follow legal and technical rules determined by the RA laws, EU regulations, GDPR recommendations and other highly recommended sources to provide efficient and necessary protection for your personal data.

For this purpose, we

• ensure that personal data can be accessed only by authorised personnel for legally authorised purposes;
• protect personal data stored or transmitted against accidental or unlawful destruction, accidental loss and/or alteration, and unauthorised and /or unlawful storage, processing, access and /or disclosure; and
• ensure the implementation of a security policy with respect to the processing of personal data.

We use a set of standards and technologies that protect data from intentional and / or accidental destruction, modification and / or disclosure. Data security is applied using a range of techniques and technologies, including administrative controls, physical security, logical controls, organizational standards, and other safeguarding techniques that limit access to unauthorized or malicious users or processes.

Personal Data Breaches

A personal data breach means a breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, your personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed. Your personal data breach is a security incident and can concern a breach of confidentiality, integrity or availability of personal data, as well as any combination of these.

• Breach of confidentiality: this occurs when unauthorised parties, or parties who have no lawful reason to access the information, do so. The severity of the loss of confidentiality varies according to the extent of the disclosure. That is, the potential number and type of parties who could have unlawfully accessed the information. 
• Breach of integrity: occurs when the original information is altered and the amended data could be prejudicial for the individual. The most serious scenario is when there is a serious possibility that the altered data have been used in a manner that could harm the individual. 
• Breach of availability: the consequence of this is that the original data cannot be accessed when necessary. This could be temporary (the data are recoverable but it will take time, which could be prejudicial to the individual), or permanent (the data cannot be recovered).

In the case of a personal data breach, we shall without undue delay and, where feasible, not later than within three working days after having become aware of it, notify you on the personal data breach via email or phone call and with your valid consent take the following steps:

• block personal data;
• eliminate the consequences of personal data breach;
• check the integrity of all personal data;
• provide specific advice to you to protect yourself from possible adverse consequences of the breach, such as resetting passwords in the case where their access credentials have been compromised;
• unblock personal data.
