Medit Inc. strives to keep your personal information accurate. We have implemented technology, management processes, and policies to maintain customer data accuracy. We will provide you with access to your information, including making a reasonable effort to provide you with online access and the opportunity to change your information. To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity, such as a password and user ID, before granting access to your data. Certain areas of Medit Inc.'s websites may limit access to specific individuals through the use of passwords and other personal identifiers.
You may choose to restrict the collection or use of your personal information by emailing us via "Contact Us" page.

Keeping your information secure.

Medit Inc. is committed to protecting the information you provide us. To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of the information, Medit Inc. has in place appropriate physical and managerial procedures to safeguard the information we collect.
We use a valid 128 SSL digital certificate from RSA Data Security Inc. and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption when collecting or transferring sensitive data such as credit card information. SSL encryption is designed to make the information unreadable by anyone but us. This security measure is working when you see either the symbol of an unbroken key or closed lock (depending on your browser) on the bottom of your browser window.
The SSL (secure socket layer) protocol is the web standard for encrypting communications between users and websites. Data sent via an SSL connection is protected by encryption, a mechanism that prevents eavesdropping and tampering with any transmitted data. SSL provides businesses and consumers with the confidence that private data sent to a website, such as credit card numbers, are kept confidential. Web server certificates are required to initialize an SSL session.
Credit card numbers are used only for processing payment and are not used for other purposes. As part of real-time payment processing, Medit Inc. subscribes to a fraud management service. This service gives you and Medit Inc. an extra level of security to guard against credit card fraud to protect your financial data.
