Thoughtful Systems Privacy Policy
Is My Information Secure?
Thoughtfulsystems.com is committed to doing its best to maintain the security of information collected on our site. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place the appropriate safeguards to secure the information we collect online. Encryption is a process by which a message or information is scrambled while it is in transit to Thoughtfulsystems.com. It is based on a key that has two different parts, public and private. The public part of the key is distributed to those with whom you want to communicate. The private part is for the recipients use only. So long as you use a browser that allows for encryption, when you send personal information to us, you use a public key to encrypt your personal information. If your information is intercepted during the transmission, it is scrambled and very difficult to decrypt. Once we receive your encrypted personal information, we use the private part of our key to decode it.
