We implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures to prevent unauthorised access to or use of the Website and/or the Services, to maintain data accuracy and to ensure the correct use of the information in our possession. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure.

Upon becoming aware of a data breach, we will notify you and the regulatory authorities in accordance with the timescales and scope required by applicable data protection law.
For Users with a registered Proxtera Account, it is important that you protect against unauthorised access of your Proxtera Account and personal data by keeping your Proxtera Account password secure and not disclosing it to anyone. We will never ask you for your password (whether via the Website, Services, email, phone or otherwise). When using a shared computer to sign in to your Proxtera Account, we would recommend that you do not choose to save your log-in information (i.e. username and password) on the shared computer. If you share your Proxtera Account password with others, you will be deemed responsible for all actions taken in the name of your account. If you become aware or have any reason(s) to suspect that your password has been compromised, we recommend that you immediately change your password.
