At Peaka, we prioritize the security and privacy of your personal data. Our comprehensive security measures are designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Below are the key components of our security strategy:
We utilize state-of-the-art encryption technologies to safeguard your data during transmission and storage.

For data at rest, we implement Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) with a 256-bit key to protect your information from unauthorized access.
To ensure that only authorized personnel can access personal data, we employ robust access control mechanisms. Our systems use role-based access controls (RBAC), where access rights are assigned based on job responsibilities. Additionally, we enforce multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all employees accessing sensitive data, adding an extra layer of security.
Our network security framework includes multiple layers of protection to defend against cyber threats. We use advanced firewalls and intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS) to monitor and control incoming and outgoing network traffic. Regular network monitoring and vulnerability assessments are conducted to identify and mitigate potential security risks.
We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of data quality to ensure that the personal information we hold is accurate, complete, and reliable. To achieve this, we employ a variety of measures, including regular audits, validation checks, and the use of advanced data management technologies. However, we also rely on you, the data subject, to help us keep your information up-to-date. We request that you notify us promptly of any changes to your personal data, such as changes in your contact details or other relevant information. You can update your information through our online portal or by contacting our support team at support@peaka.com.

If a violation of the privacy policy is identified, we take prompt corrective actions, which may include employee retraining, system updates, or disciplinary measures. We encourage our users to report any concerns regarding their privacy by contacting our Data Protection Officer at security@peaka.com. All reports are thoroughly investigated, and appropriate actions are taken to resolve any issues.
