This document outlines SealSuites’ policy and practices regarding data storage, handling, and encryption as it pertains to our document storage and management software, MagicList. Our goal is to ensure that user data is secure, accessible, and compliant with relevant laws, regulations, rules, and professional codes of conduct.
For reference purposes, the defined terms in the MagicList Disclaimer, Conditions, and Terms of Use Agreement are incorporated into this document.
2. Collection, Use, and Disclosure of Personal and Confidential Information
By using MagicList, you agree to SealSuites’ legal collection, use and disclosure of personal information in a manner that is consistent with the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, Personal Information Protection Act, or any other relevant statues, regulations, rules, policies (including any issued by the Office of the Information & Privacy Commissioner), and agreement between the Parties.
SealSuites recognizes the possibility and/or fact that personal, confidential, sensitive, proprietary, and/or privileged information may or are contained in the documents (the “Confidential Information”) uploaded through MagicList and agrees not to use or share the Confidential Information with any third party unless expressly authorized by You to do so.
SealSuites agrees not to collect, use, and/or disclose the Confidential Information for any purpose other than purposes which ordinarily fall within the intention of the use of MagicList.
3. Data Storage
3.1. Cloud Storage
All user data uploaded through MagicList is securely stored on Amazon Web Services (AWS). AWS is a reputable cloud service provider that adheres to industry-standard security protocols, providing robust security measures to protect stored data. SealSuites utilizes various AWS services, including S3 for storage. More information regarding AWS data centre controls can be found at https://aws.amazon.com/compliance/data-center/controls/
3.2. Data Locations
User uploaded files are temporarily stored in AWS region Canada (Central). This geographic selection allows us to maintain compliance with local and international data protection regulations, ensuring data sovereignty and integrity.
4. Data Handling
4.1. User Data Uploads
When users upload documents to MagicList, we ensure that all files are transmitted securely through encrypted connections using TLS v1.2. This protects user data from unauthorized access during the upload process.
4.2. Access Control
Access to user data is strictly limited to authorized personnel only. We implement role-based access controls (RBAC) to ensure that employees can only access the data necessary for their job functions. All employees are required to undergo training in data protection and are bound by confidentiality agreements to safeguard user data privacy.
4.3. Data Retention
SealSuites retains user’s uploaded files for a duration specified by the user, typically between 7 and 30 days, to fulfill our service obligations. Additionally, we may retain data as necessary to comply with legal obligations. Users may request data deletion at any time, and such requests will be honored in accordance with our data retention policy. Users may opt out of having their uploaded files retained.
5. Data Encryption
5.1. At Rest
All data stored in AWS is encrypted at rest using AES-256. This ensures that user data is stored in a format that is unreadable without the appropriate decryption keys, providing an additional layer of security against unauthorized access.
5.2. In Transit
Data is encrypted in transit using TLS v1.2 to prevent interception during the upload and download processes. This ensures that files are protected from the moment they leave the user’s device until they are securely stored on our servers.
