NCR recognises the importance of protecting your data and takes the necessary measures to prevent abuse, loss, unauthorised access, unwanted disclosure and unrequested changes. If you feel like your data is not secured well or if there are signs of abuse, please contact us through secretary@ncr-web.org. NCR has taken the following precautions to secure your personal data:

  • Security software, such as a virus scanner and a firewall.
  • TLS (previously SSL); you data is sent through a secure connection. You can verify this by looking for the ‘https’ prefix in the address bar, as well as the lock icon.
  • DNSSEC is an extra layer of security (building upon DNS) for translating a domain name (http://ncr-web.org) to the IP address assigned to this domain; a digital signature is added to this. This signature is automatically checked. This way, we prevent you from connecting to a fake IP address.
