How
We Protect Information Online
It
is our policy to protect your account information against

some personal data, such as your password and test results,
will be stored in encrypted form.
In
addition, we have procedures that limit Protec's employees
access to personal information. Only those employees
with a business reason to know have access to such information.
We educate our employees about the importance of confidentiality
and customer privacy through standard operating procedures,
mandatory training programs, and internal policies on
data privacy and corporate integrity. We take appropriate
disciplinary measures to enforce employee privacy responsibilities.
