How we protect your security:

Passwords

  1. All users must sign in with an id and password before they can get to any data.
  2. When existing church members sign up for the first time through our website, they must enter their first name, last name, suffix and email address. All of this must match the information we have in our historical database. The member is then sent a confirming email with your id and password. This keeps people from being able to go in and sign up as someone else, since the email would go to the actual member in the record, not the person trying to sign in.
  3. When new users sign up for a log in they must request log in access by clicking on "Need a Login?"

Hardware and Software Security

  1. All transactions use encryption technology such as Secure Socket Layer (ssl) to transmit information between you and the church database.
  2. Firewalls and intrusions detection block unauthorized access by individuals.
  3. Backups are done regularly and stored offsite by our database vendor, ACS technologies.

Hardware and Software Security

  1. In an attempt to combat increases in credit card fraud, Visa, MasterCard, and other major credit cards got together and defined jointly published standards for securing credit card information. These standards, called the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standards, define the best practices for handling, storing, and transmitting credit card information.
  2. Visa's Cardholder Information Security Program (CISP) is designed to ensure that all merchants that store, process, or transmit Visa cardholder data, protect it properly. To achieve CISP compliance, merchants and service providers must adhere to the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard.
    To become CISP compliant, vendors must go through a rigorous audit to meet the stringent requirements. We chose ServiceU as our processor because they have passed this audit. In some cases, they exceeded it. One such requirement is to have a quarterly network scan performed by a qualified scanning vendor. ServiceU exceeds this requirement with nightly scans performed by ScanAlert.
  3. ACS Technologies, our database vendor, has worked with ServiceU to integrate the ServiceU credit card handling screens into their product. ServiceU gathers the sensitive data, stores it, and processes it through the payment gateway and merchant account. And because ServiceU is CISP compliant, you can be assured that your data is kept secure.
