5. Data security
5.1. Warning against forged e-mails (spoofing), spam and phishing
Die The security of our customers' data is our top priority. In the following we would like to give you some security advice.
Beware of so-called phishing and spoofing attempts
In this scam, empiriecom is unfortunately also misused as a supposed sender. Specifically, this means that consumers receive fake e-mails in the name of empiriecom. These e-mails are even often based on the empiriecom brand layout and may be difficult to distinguish from genuine e-mails from empiriecom.
The fraudsters want to exploit the position of trust between empiriecom and our customers and thus steal sensitive data or install harmful software (such as viruses or Trojans) on your computer or smartphone.
The creation of these e-mails and the sending of them is not done by empiriecom, even if our name should be used as sender. Therefore, empiriecom unfortunately cannot influence the sending of these illegal e-mails.
The following are some characteristics by which you can recognize e-mails from empiriecom:
- empiriecom does not ask you for personal information via e-mail, nor does empiriecom ask you to confirm personal information via a link in an e-mail.
- empiriecom only sends e-mails with file attachments if you have explicitly requested them from us (e.g. operating instructions).
- Mails from empiriecom should not contain any spelling or grammatical errors, as they are always proofread before being sent.
How to deal properly with spam, phishing and spoofing emails:
- We recommend that you delete suspicious emails immediately.
- Never open links or attachments in suspicious e-mails and do not disclose any personal data.
Our tip and service for you: If you are ever unsure, simply use our free callback service or send us an e-mail at: connect@empiriecom.com
5.2. Important information about protecting your data
In today's networked world, unauthorized attempts to access personal information are a reality that individuals and businesses face on a daily basis. There is no question that this is a major challenge.
Because data protection is our top priority, we invest in and constantly monitor the security of our systems.
