ENCRYPTED DATA

We have put in place security hardware, software and software update and network scanning procedures designed to safeguard and secure the information (including personal data) under our control and follow generally accepted industry standards. We work with third party service providers and vendors that use encryption and authentication to maintain the confidentiality of your personal data. If stored, we house personal information on systems behind firewalls that are only accessible to limited personnel, who are under DPA.

We store personal data of all our users in an encrypted way. We use asymmetric public-private key cryptosystem RSA with key size is 4096 bit (further RSA) and symmetric-key algorithm AES with key size is 256 bit (further AES).

Asymmetric public-private key cryptosystem RSA (key size is 4096 bit) use public encryption key and private decryption key. The public encryption key is storing in database (DB) in open way. The private decryption key is storing in DB encrypted using AES 256 using key which consist of the user’s password and secret key. It cannot be decrypted without user’s password and secret key.

User’s credentials are user’s login is stored in DB. User’s password is not stored. We store only hash of the password. We generate public-private key pair for cryptosystem RSA during user’s sign up. This public-private key pair is unique for each user. The key pair is stored in DB encrypted format using AES 256.

Login process: We use user’s password from login form for decrypting user’s original private key.

Encryption data: We get opened data from devices using encrypted https protocol. We immediately start encryption process of the data on the server in the RAM without storing on server`s disks. We encrypted data using RSA using user’s public encryption key.

The encrypted data is saved to our servers.

Decryption: We get user’s decrypted private key. We decrypt user’s text data using user`s original private decryption key. We show this information to user.

We consider your use of Detectico to be private. However, we may disclose your personal information stored in your account and/or on our servers and databases, in order to:

(1) comply with the law or legal process served on us;

(2) enforce and investigate potential violations of this Privacy Notice, Terms of use; including use of this Service to participate in, or facilitate activities that violate the law;

(3) investigate potential fraudulent activities; or

(4) protect the rights, property, or safety of our Company, its employees, its customers or the public.

In the event of a change of control of Detectico (such as asset transfers through a merger, sale, assignment or liquidation of the business entity, or any of its properties, assets or equity) or, in the event of a direct or indirect sale of any of its publishing properties and/or its Website(s)in our possession will be transferred to the new owner/successor. You will be notified of any such transaction and have an ability to exercise your legal rights under GDPR. You may always change or delete your personal data or opt out by contacting us as provided below, or if the acquirer posts a new Privacy Notice with new contact information, you may change or delete your personal data or opt out by following any new instructions that are posted.

As a controller, we may also transfer to one or more processors (e.g. a payment provider under DPA) personal data of a data subject for (a) payment processing purpose, which is attributable to the controller and without which a user would not be able to purchase the Detectico; (b) telecommunication purpose and without which a suers would not be able to use the Detectico.

As we use third party technological services for the provision of Services, we may transfer your personal data internationally. Providers of such technological services may process personal data collected in the course of providing us their services as sub-processors only under DPA in accordance with GDPR.

In case there might be a risk of unauthorized disclosure of personal data the controller communicates the personal data breach to the data subject without undue delay. However, as the controller has implemented appropriate technical and organizational protection measures, as encryption, and it was applied to the personal data affected by the personal data breach, the controller is not required to communicate the data subject.

However, the encryption is useless if the access password or other credentials are weakly protected and stored by data subject. In this case the controller is not responsible for personal data breach.

In the case of a personal data breach, we, as a controller, shall without undue delay and, where feasible, not later than 72 hours after having become aware of it, notify the personal data breach to the competent supervisory authority.
