We at CORDI care a whole lot about privacy and security and will strive to keep on improving on it, so that you don't have to worry about any of your sensitive data. We follow the strategy of "the less information, the better". The little information we do have is unfortunately currently not encrypted. We are already thinking about and working on strategies to provide you with the best privacy standards possible. This is definitely one of our top priorities.
