Protecting Your Data

We take data security seriously and have put measures in-place to try and ensure that your personal information is not stolen or passed on.
  • Your password is one-way encrypted, using industry standard algorithms.   
  • Key items of your personal information are encrypted at database level, again using industry standard algorithms.
  • Shop owners do not have access to customer information.
  • Access to the database is restricted to the GroovyCart application and to technical staff only.
  • As your personal data is encrypted, even the technical staff cannot read it. 
  • The backups are specific to our server set-up and the data remains encrypted. 
  • We have an Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system for managing customer contacts, such as customer reporting faults.
  • Our CRM can only be accessed from an internal network (not the world-wide-web).
  • Access to our CRM system is restricted and controlled by user login and roles.
  • GroovyCart has a data-feed to our CRM system, however only a limited amount of information is passed across.
  • No data is copied onto CDs.
  • No data is copied onto laptops.
  • Data is copied onto a daily backup device but it remains encrypted.
  • We will not pass on your details to anyone else.
  • We do not hold any credit card information.
  • We regularly apply security updates to our Apple Mac Xserve server platform.
