Security Policy

Our Security
At aauwsalemor.org the security of customer data is as important to us as it is to you. Physical safeguards, procedural controls, and data access controls protect your data from unauthorized access. We continually monitor our systems to prevent unauthorized attempts at intrusion.

SSL Encryption
aauwsalemor.org uses strong 256-bit encryption and SSL (Secure Sockets Layer), a protocol for transmitting private information via the Internet. SSL uses a private key to encrypt data that is transferred to us. This protocol is a standard used by many websites when you submit confidential information such as credit card numbers and other personal data. SSL creates a secure connection between your browser and our server. Addresses of web pages using an SSL connection start with “https:” instead of “http:”, and most browsers also display an icon of a closed padlock when you visit a page using SSL.

Our site is 256-bit SSL encrypted for maximum security.

Website Security
Web browsers are updated frequently to patch discovered vulnerabilities and increase security. Keeping your browser updated is an important step to keeping your system and data secure. Our website is designed to use the improvements in security and speed in all major modern web browsers. Our site has been verified compatible with Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher, Google Chrome 3.0 or higher, Firefox 3.0 or higher, Safari 4.0 or higher, and Opera 9.0 or higher. Presentation and layout of our pages is best appreciated using these browsers. Many other browsers will also work with our site, but using a modern browser is best for security and speed.

Web Browser Security
Keeping your web browser up-to-date will improve your security and help speed page loading.

Changes To This Policy
AAUW Salem will occasionally update this security policy. We encourage you to periodically review this security policy to stay informed about how we are helping to protect the information we collect. Your continued use of our site constitutes your agreement to this security policy and any updates.
