The protection of your data is very important to us.

That is why we choose to follow the highest level of safety we can think of, from an internationally trusted source, to handle data our protection. Please read more…

We intentionally store group shared Journal data in Google Sheets because your data security is our top priority. In addition to SSL encryption and GDPR compliance, Google Sheets incorporates a sophisticated user access control system. Only the designated group leader possesses the authority to add users, ensuring a strict governance framework. Moreover, Google employs a robust two-factor authentication system, a process that involves a double layer of security: something the user knows (password) and something the user has (such as a mobile device). This multi-layered approach significantly fortifies the protection of your account, providing an extra level of assurance against unauthorized access.

By leveraging these advanced security measures, Google Sheets not only meets but exceeds industry standards, guaranteeing your data's confidentiality and integrity. You can have full confidence in the platform's security protocols, allowing you to focus on your work with peace of mind.
