If you feel that your data is not well secured or there are indications of misuse, please contact our customer service or via support@modeus.com. Modeus has taken the following measures to secure your personal data:

– Security software, such as a virus scanner and firewall.

– TLS (formerly SSL) We send your data via a secure internet connection. This can be seen on the address bar ‘https’ and the padlock in the address bar.

– DKIM, SPF, and DMARC are three internet standards we use to prevent you from receiving emails in our name that contain viruses, are spam, or are intended to obtain personal (login) information.

– DNSSEC is an additional security (in addition to DNS) for converting a domain name to its associated IP address; it is provided with a digital signature. You can have that signature automatically checked. This way, we prevent you from being redirected to a false IP address.
