We want our Customers to use our services and access Internet resources with confidence. Accordingly, we protect the confidentiality of each Customer's account information and personal communications consistent with this Privacy Policy, the law, and the legitimate interests of TransGlobal Connections, its employees, and our other Customers.

- Internally, we review security and auditing trails on a regular basis to watch for intrusion.
- Externally, we periodically contract a firm to perform a security audit.
- We make our employees aware of the security and privacy practices through new hire training, periodic training for customer service and technical relations as needed.
- We restrict access to sensitive data that is collected through our services to those that are needed to provide the services. Authorized personnel are authenticated with username and password.
- Once information reaches our site, the information is protected by a firewall and strict system security.
