Data transmissions for CodeLingo users are protected by SSL encryption by default, the same technology used by thousands of leading online services such as banks, email providers and remote backup services.

Once we receive your data transmission, we make all commercially reasonable efforts to ensure its security on our systems:

Your data is encrypted at rest in our database and in all backups we create.

The CodeLingo service uses standard SSL encryption to protect data transmissions. However, this is not a guarantee that such data transmissions cannot be accessed, altered or deleted due to firewall or other security software failures.

Depending on where you live, you may have a legal right to receive such notices in writing.
