Protection

Our websites are protected with the SSL-protocol (https). The transmission and syncing of data takes place on strongly secured network connections. We use professional, paid for and always updated antivirus programs and anti-hacking programmes. For the communication and the consultation or processing of files we use an encrypted VPN connection. The back up storage of data takes place 24/7 via an encrypted connection via private rented servers in Europe. You can upload files via your personal login page on our website. The access to these files is encrypted and secured at the highest level, in which you are assigned a personal HASH. All network connections with the webserver are protected with strong encryption. An encrypted data connection between users and the application prevents the possible misuse of the authentication data of users and the compromising of confidentiality and integrity of the data processed by the application during the transport. The system must have an A level on https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html.. Yource has this A level. Passwords (of administrators/Yource) are never saved in readable form in the system and/or in the database. Instead, a “one-way-hash” of the password including salt is recorded to perform the authentication. By saving a hashed version of a password, the impact of possible data theft is greatly limited.

We cannot guarantee that these third parties handle your personal data in a reliable and safe way.
