How We Protect Your Personal Information

SSL/TLS on Every Page: All data you enter travels over HTTPS with up-to-date TLS encryption, preventing interception in transit.
Encryption at Rest: Your documents are stored in an encrypted database—remaining unintelligible without the decryption key, even if someone gained file-server access.

Need-to-Know Basis: Only vetted, background-checked staff members have credentials to access Social Security numbers, with every access logged and monitored.
Regular Security Audits: We undergo annual third-party reviews (SOC 2 Type II or similar) to confirm that no unauthorized access occurs.

Legal & Regulatory Adherence: We follow all applicable privacy laws (Washington's data-privacy rules, federal Privacy Act, CCPA) and never share client SSNs with third parties except as required to process claims.
Cyber Liability Insurance & Bonding: We carry professional-liability and cyber-security insurance, protecting clients financially and reputationally in the unlikely event of a breach.
