HOW WE PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION

  • All Personally Identifiable Information is encrypted at rest using OpenSSL and AES-256-CBC cipher.
  • Direct access to the database is not possible for anyone except for a limited number of 2 authorized IPs of database administrators within our organization.
  • We use tools provided by our host, Google Cloud, to monitor, detect, and log any malicious activity on our servers. Google monitors (among many other things) access rates, response times, ssh connections, network activity, abnormal activity, etc. Our logs never contain PII. All server access is also restricted to a limited number of 2 authorized IPs of database administrators within our organization.
  • All application changes are evaluated in a dedicated test environment before pushing to production
  • All applications are scanned once every 180 days for vulnerabilities and every 365 days with a penetration test. We remediate any vulnerabilities found within 72 hours.
  • We scan application code for vulnerabilities prior to each release
  • Security system team is responsible for change management. They are only allowed access using SHA2 ssh keys
  • Access to our database through the network is disabled and standard ports are closed.  The database is only accessible through a socket on the server itself.
  • The reverse proxy only serves whitelisted directories that are only from sources controlled by sku.io
  • API endpoints are password protected (SHA512 encryption, salted, and stretched for thousands of rounds)
  • Login credentials are always transmitted securely over HTTPS
  • Access rights are provided to employees based on their role within the company and are progressive, based on their responsibility
  • sku.io does not prevent employees from accessing the organization's data from personal devices.  Role-based restrictions and access right still apply.
  • Personally Identifiable Information is stored in an unencrypted database.  Direct access to the database is not possible for the customer outside of UI interactions or API calls.  Granular access rights control ensures that access is not shared to all users of the database.
  • We backup databases with PII information in an encrypted database on GCP, encrypted with OpenSSL and the AES-256-CBC cipher. Direct access to the database is not possible for anyone except for a limited number of 2 authorized IPs of database administrators within our organization.
  • We use automated probes on our server to report their status in Munin, an open-sourced monitoring tool.  This tool automatically triggers alarms when probes detect values outside of their pre-defined range.  We monitor (among many other things) access rates, response times, ssh connections, network activity.
  • In the event of a breach of Personally Identifiable Information, we will:
    • Record the date and time the breach was discovered
    • Notify any relevant third parties
    • Activate both internal an outside response teams for the type of breach
    • Conduct initial interviews of those with critical knowledge of the potential breach
    • Get forensics personnel on site to make a secure copy of the affected systems so that they can be fixed without compromising assessment of the manner of the breach
    • Discuss the action items to execute
  • We have strict requirements for passwords and developers must establish minimum password requirements for personnel and systems with access to Information. Password requirements must be a minimum of twelve (12) characters, contain upper and lower case letters, contain numbers, contain special characters, and they expire quarterly. No part of a user’s name can be contained within the password. We're using Multi-Factor Authentication. API keys provided by Amazon are encrypted and only given access to two key expert developers within our team.
  • We only use a stub database for testing, not Personally Identifiable Information
  • Personally Identifiable Information is encrypted when debugging and not logged
  • Developers must use different passwords for different accounts and systems.  Developers must use multi-factor authentication (MFA) via Google Authenticator for login to systems.  Developers must not hardcode sensitive credentials in their code, including encryption keys, secret access keys, or passwords.  Sensitive credentials must not be exposed in code repositories.  Developers must maintain separate test and production environments.
  • We test applications periodically to assess products' security and locate any security vulnerabilities that might be hidden in source code before releasing it.  We're using SonarQube (automated tracking and detection tool for Vulnerabilities) to automatically detect all open source components in our organization's systems.
  • We configure standard automation and integration into the tools developers are already using.  We have real-time application security awareness training within the developer integrated development environments.  We use a CI/CD tool for deployment.  We use the Splunk tool to quickly detect and respond to internal and external hacks, to simplify threat management while minimizing risks and safeguarding systems.  We quickly remediate, in the shortest time possible, with the best-fix location.

TARGETED ADVERTISING

  • We engage certain third-party service providers to serve advertisements on our behalf across the Internet and to provide analytics services. We may also participate in third-party affiliate advertising and allow third-party affiliate links to be encoded on some of our pages.

  • California Consumers
    • This section pertains to the rights of individuals or households in California (“California consumers”).
    • Under certain circumstances, California Civil Code Section 1798.83 states that, upon receipt of a request by a California consumer, a business may be required to provide detailed information regarding how that business has shared that customer’s Personal Information with third parties for direct marketing purposes. However, the foregoing does not apply to businesses like ours that do not disclose Personal Information to third parties for direct marketing purposes.
    • The CCPA (California Civil Code Section 1798.100 et seq.) provides California consumers with additional rights regarding Personal Information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly with a particular consumer or household. The categories of Personal Information we collect are generally described above but differ for individual consumers depending on the services used by such consumers.

      • Right to Know and Right to Delete.
      • A California consumer has the right to request that we disclose what Personal Information we collect, use, disclose and sell. A California consumer also has the right to submit requests to delete Personal Information.
      • When we receive a valid request to know or delete from a California consumer, we will confirm receipt of the request within 10 days and provide information about how we will process the request, including our verification process. We will respond to such requests within 45 days.
      • Right for Disclosure of Information.
      • A California consumer may also submit requests that we disclose specific types or categories of Personal Information that we collect.
      • Under certain circumstances, we will not provide such information, including where the disclosure creates a substantial, articulable and unreasonable risk to the security of that Personal Information, customers’ account with us, or the security of our systems or networks. We also will not disclose California consumers’ social security numbers, driver’s license numbers or other government-issued identification numbers, financial account numbers, any health insurance or medical identification numbers, or account passwords and security questions and answers.
    • Submitting Requests. If you are a California consumer and would like to make any requests under the CCPA, please see the “Changing and Deleting Personal Information” the section.
    • Verifying Requests. If we receive any request we will use a two-step process for online requests where the California consumer must first, clearly submit the request and then second, separately confirm the request. We will use other appropriate measures to verify requests received by mail or telephone.
    • To verify a request, a California consumer must provide a business with sufficient information to identify the consumer, such as name, e-mail address, home or work address, or other such information that is on record with us so that we can match such information to the Personal Information that we maintain. Do not provide social security numbers, driver’s license numbers, account numbers, credit or debit card numbers, medical information or health information with requests. If requests are unclear or submitted through means other than outline above, we will provide the California consumer with specific directions on how to submit the request or remedy any deficiencies. If we cannot verify the identity of the requestor, we may deny the request.
