Protection of personal information collected by ZOFI

ZOFI's leading security experts and practices help ensure that your personal data is secure. All such information is stored on servers with state-of-the-art data protection technology, and is accessible only to ZOFI employees who, for business purposes, need to access it. We use 128-bit encryption and encode your debit card or related information as soon as it is entered in the ZOFI app, a process that overwrites your details so that they are unreadable by unauthorized parties.

No method of transmission over the internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Although ZOFI uses strong methods to protect the data that you provide to us, and we regularly test our information protection practices and technology, ZOFI cannot absolutely guarantee its security. We will, however, notify you of any breach or other compromise that affects your data, promptly and in compliance with applicable law.
