5. Data Security Measures

Protecting your personal information is paramount at aqua88. We implement industry-leading security measures to safeguard your data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

5.1 Technical Security Measures

• Encryption: All data transmitted between your device and our servers is protected using 256-bit SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption, the same standard used by major banks.
• Secure Storage: Personal information is stored on secure servers with advanced firewall protection, intrusion detection systems, and regular security audits.
• Data Segmentation: Sensitive information (payment details, identification documents) is stored separately from general account data with additional access controls.
• Password Security: Your password is hashed using strong cryptographic algorithms and is never stored in plain text. We enforce password complexity requirements.
• Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Optional 2FA adds an extra security layer to your account login process.
