Security Policy
This overview outlines the security measures Sprintax, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Sprintax”, “we” or “us”) has put in place to protect your information when you are using our website at www.sprintax.com (the “Website”).
01Secure storage
We encrypt the files that you store on the Website using the AES-256 standard, which is the same encryption standard used by banks to secure customer data. Encryption is applied after data is uploaded, and we manage the encryption keys. We store data in several large-scale data centers with restricted external access to the server environments. All staff members are carefully screened before being allowed physical access to any of the server environments. Personal access is further restricted by tight access controls within the server environments. Our data centers are marked as restricted zones. Relevant policies are in place to ensure that nobody except authorized personnel can access them. In the event that an external party needs to access a data center they are accompanied at all times by a System Administrator.02Data security
As we deal with sensitive information, we place the highest priority on ensuring that our data is securely stored, transmitted and disposed of as required. We use a number of methods of encryption for data storage and transmission, including:- RSA public/private key encryption
- AES-256 symmetrical encryption
- Digital certificate (SSL) encryption
- SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP)
