Greetings to Members,

The BC Marine Trails Network Association has examined the new European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). In terms of your personal data, our association only processes financial information through Stripe, a highly secure payment gateway and we use Mailchimp to send newsletters. We do not use personal data for any third party purpose.

Membership information is kept on our own servers. BC Marine Trails’ servers are behind individual firewalls at the University of BC (UBC) as well as being under Cisco Umbrella (cloud security platform), and they are actively monitored and updated in response to new threats.

The entire server stack is contained within UBC's network and all communication between subsystems (such as saving and storing backups) is encrypted. No external access to data is permitted except to select administrators of our association.

Measures to secure the BC Marine Trails’ member data meet or exceed industry standards.

Sincerely

Paul Grey

President BC Marine Trails
