Data security

We take the security of your information very seriously. We have been very careful in developing processes and employing technology to protect against any current and future security threats in these areas.

Enago is committed to protecting the security of your information and adopts reasonable standard, industry-wide practices for protecting your information. However, no internet data transmission is 100% secure, and hence we cannot ensure that the information you transmit to us won't be intercepted over the internet. We recommend that you practice online security measures such as having strong passwords and not disclosing your password to anyone.

If Enago learns of a security system breach, we may attempt to notify you and provide information on protective steps, if available, through the email address that you have provided to us or by posting a notice on the Enago website.

We use 128-bit Public/Private key encryption for data and file transfers and hold high-assurance SSL Certificates—a worldwide accepted security certificate and the highest measure to prevent threats and plagiarism.

Data confidentiality

Confidentiality refers to limiting information access and disclosure to authorized users and preventing access by or disclosure to unauthorized ones. Enago trains employees about the importance of maintaining the confidentiality and security of your information.

Data confidentiality covers data in storage, during processing, and in transit. Enago guarantees that your data will not be accessed or disclosed to unauthorized individuals, entities, or processes and will be protected from intentional or accidental attempts to perform unauthorized data reads.

Physical Access Control

Access control is determined by the software, hardware and liveware (humans) that enforce it. Enago has a system of controls that limits access to the organization’s resources.

Network Protection

Also critical to confidentiality are protections against malicious software (malware), spyware, spam, and phishing attacks. Enago servers are protected behind a firewall to prevent users from accessing them other than by specifically allowed protocols and methods. Enago also maintains a detection method which picks up suspicious activity that may signal an intrusion and tracks each transaction by the user login details and provides a timestamp for each event.

Enago does not knowingly collect any Personal Data from children under the age of 18. If you are under the age of 18, please do not submit any Personal Data through our websites or services. We encourage parents and legal guardians to monitor their children’s internet usage and to help enforce this notice by instructing their children never to provide Personal Data through our services or websites without their permission. If you have reason to believe that a child under the age of 18 has provided Personal Data to us through our websites or services, please contact us at plag.help@enago.com; we will delete that information and terminate the child's account from our databases.
