Any sites that PSCU Financial Services hosts to support its web products, such as InfoLink and PayLynx, are secure sites. This means that all exchanges between the end user's web browser and the sites are protected by Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) 128-bit encryption. PSCU Financial Services further uses Verisign Class-3 Security Certificates to enable 128-bit encrypted SSL sessions in some browsers that only have 56-bit cypher strength, such as Microsoft's browser that is approved for export outside of the United States. This is especially relevant to credit unions that have an overseas membership base.
PSCU Financial Services' internetworking architecture includes several components that collectively provide a high degree of protection from unwanted intrusions or malicious hacking attempts. Our routers include packet-filtering capabilities; our firewalls hide all of our internetworks from the public Internet; and we use intrusion detection and scanning hardware and software to detect any threats to security in real-time.
PSCU Financial Services and its electronic billing and payment partner, Fiserv, use several methods to ensure that your members' bill payment information is secure.
Currently, PSCU Financial Services does not share any member-provided information with any outside parties. The information is stored in databases in our secure data center. However, it is possible that in the future PSCU Financial Services may need to share aggregated demographic information with select partners to facilitate the building of programs and campaigns for cultivating lasting customer relationships and loyalty.
Whether we specifically use IP addresses or some other tracking or auditing data elements, we will need to analyze user behavior within our sites. This is to enable us to track consumer volume, determine requirements for additional hardware and software, create usage reports for subscribing institutions, and measure the success of our products.
Yes, but in most cases the link will be transparent to the user. In other words, a PSCU Financial Services site may transfer control to another partner's site to manage a particular element of a session, such as bill payment using the Fiserv bill payment engine.
