When we receive law enforcement or national security requests for information, we strongly believe in privacy and transparency.

5. Protection
While no service is completely secure, our team is dedicated to keeping your information safe. We employ security measures such as using firewalls to protect
against intruders, building redundancies throughout our network (so that if one server goes down, another can cover for it) and testing for and protecting against network vulnerabilities. Payment information is transmitted using HTTPS encryption directly to our payment processor Stripe and never passes through our servers.
