1.     Our Approach to Privacy and Security

MGMS Training Limited is committed to protecting your privacy. Where you provide us with any information by which you can be identified, then we will only use it in accordance with this Privacy Policy.  

While no service is completely secure, we have taken a number of measures to ensure your personal information is safe.

Our website www.mgmstraining.ie includes SSL certificates for encryption, meaning that it encrypts all information you input before you send it to us. With SSL enabled automatically, you as a visitor to our website, can access a constant, secure connection on every page of www.mgmstraining.ie  

SSL provides three important security benefits: (Privacy: Encrypts the connection between the browser and web server and securely transmits information; Data integrity: Prevents unauthorized parties from altering data during transmission (like during a Form Block submission); Authentication: Protects against impersonation by requiring web server proof of identity). Through SSL, you as a visitor can see a lock icon next to our URL in the browser, showing that your information is safe.

In line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we also follow strict security procedures in the storage and disclosure of information which you have given us, to prevent unauthorised access. Two factor authentication is enabled on our website www.mgmstraining.ie and all emails accounts associated with it. All devices used to access MGMS Training Limited email accounts are Apple products and use encryption software.
