Security:

The Bucks County, PA chapter of the NAACP values the security of our customers' information and we do everything in our power to protect it. Here’s how we protect your information:

 

  • Our website is built and maintained by Wix.

  • Wix contracts security consultants to ensure the security of our user information.

  • Wix has been audited and certified as ISO 27001 compliant. The ISO 27001 certification outlines industry best practices for managing security risks. Wix performs regular security audits and infiltration testing to maintain its ISO/PCI security certifications. Any issues that are reported to its security team or raised during security audits these are resolved as soon as possible.

  • Wix is Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS) compliant and is accredited as a level 1 service provider and merchant. It encrypts databases containing sensitive information, according to PCI standards, to add additional protection of personally identifiable information. Its encryption methods render this information unreadable without a cryptographic key. 

  • Wix uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption to help protect your online financial transactions.

  • Wix has a multiple layer security architecture to help protect against 0-day security issues. 

  • Wix's signup and login services are completed through a secure server. The information provided to Wix in the signup process is secured via HTTPS/ SSL communication. Wix uses cryptography hash functions to protect your information. Your password is stored as a hash digest and, in the event of a security breach, your original password cannot be recovered from our servers.  

  • The Bucks County chapter of the NAACP uses commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any information you give to us is stored and maintained in secure servers and not publicly accessible.  We protect personal data by only allowing limited, authorized personnel to have access to such personal data.

 

However, despite our best security efforts, no data transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
