PracticeBox websites take every precaution to protect their user personal information. When users submit personal information via our websites this information is protected both on-line and off-line.
When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number) that information is encrypted and is protected by advanced encryption software- provided by Netbanx. While on a secure page, the padlock icon on the bottom of the web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer should be closed. While we may use encryption technology to protect personal information on-line, we also do everything in our power to protect user information off-line. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or member of our Assistance Team) will have access and our employees must use passwords to access information. They must re-enter their password to re-gain access to your information. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Every quarter, as well as any time new policies are added, our employees are notified and/ or reminded about the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our customer information is protected.
