At Loop, security is a top priority. Our security team is made up of educators,
engineers, and experts dedicated to enabling resilient security across the board.
As an SOC2 certified company, Loop is diligent about maintaining our security day in and day out, in adherence with all national and international regulations, like GDPR, CCPA, and more. From investigating potential weaknesses in our infrastructure to helping QA our products to teaching our larger team about security and more, our security team has their hands full, and we love them for it.
Most data breaches occur because of poor data storage practices. While Loop doesn’t hold onto much of your data (like credit card numbers and other sensitive information), the data we do store is AES-256 encrypted at rest, and verified by an auditor. We are careful to limit access to this data, and we routinely test our storage systems to protect against attacks from bad actors.
Security is ever-evolving, so we expect our security experts at Loop to embrace a curious approach to their work. From getting their CISSP certifications to staying up-to-date on the latest security threats and innovations, our team seeks out opportunities to learn more about security themselves and to help educate the rest of our Loop team and our Loop merchants about what it means to be digitally secure.
When it comes to your data, our team is committed to protecting your confidentiality and privacy, and we test our products and solutions for integrity to make sure that Loop is resilient against breaches.
We know you’re entrusting our team with a lot of data, and we treat it with the care it deserves.
