Security Policy

NexGen Computing Security Policy

Overview

At NexGen Computing, we take the security of your personal information seriously. This policy outlines the measures we have in place to protect your data and the actions you can take to help keep your information secure.

Secure Connections

Our website uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to ensure that your connection to our site is secure and encrypted. This means that any data transmitted between your browser and our servers is protected from interception by unauthorized parties.

SSL Certificate

We have implemented SSL certificates on all pages of our website, which you can verify by checking for the padlock symbol in your browser's address bar. This encryption technology protects your personal data as it travels over the internet, ensuring it cannot be read by anyone else.

Secure HTTP (HTTPS)

All communications between your web browser and our website are carried out over HTTPS, a secure version of HTTP. This ensures that all data transferred is encrypted and protected from eavesdropping or tampering.

Payment Security

All payments made on our site are processed securely on our domain. We use industry-standard security measures to protect your payment information. Payments are handled using encrypted connections, and sensitive data, such as credit card numbers, are processed by PCI-compliant payment processors like Yoco, Paystack, and Peach Payments.

Shopify Security Features

Our store is hosted on Shopify, which provides robust security features including regular security updates, compliance with Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), and proactive monitoring to prevent unauthorized access. Shopify also employs end-to-end encryption and strong security protocols to protect your information.

Access Control and Monitoring

Access to sensitive data within our systems is restricted to authorized personnel only. We use strong password policies, multi-factor authentication, and regular access reviews to ensure only those who need access have it. Our systems are continuously monitored for suspicious activity and potential threats.

Data Encryption and Protection

We use encryption to protect your data both in transit and at rest. Sensitive information, such as payment details, are encrypted using advanced algorithms, ensuring it remains secure from unauthorized access.

Customer Responsibilities

While we do our best to protect your information, it’s also important for you to take steps to safeguard your data. Always use strong, unique passwords for your accounts and be wary of phishing attempts and other forms of social engineering. Do not share your login details with anyone.

Regular Security Audits

We regularly conduct security audits and vulnerability assessments to identify and address potential security weaknesses. This proactive approach helps us maintain a high level of security and ensure compliance with industry standards and best practices.
