Measures taken to ensure a maximum level of data security and confidentiality

Our client's recruited contractor is the only individual who is provided with access to the client's information systems and is trained and legally bound to comply with strict privacy and confidentiality procedures.

  2. Should a client opt to use our data management platform for their contractor(s), all confidential related information is encrypted at each point of the data flow process using secure document management and data sharing software. Our system allows controlled, supervised and tracked access. Additional measures are implemented as per the Company's privacy and security procedure.

  3. Personal health information is not retained on any individual workstation and all files are destroyed and removed from the contractors PC once the work is delivered.

  4. Our workstations use the highest levels of virus protection and maximum configuration of applications and web browsers are implemented.
