Security

Overview

WorkLocally takes the security of user information seriously. We implement industry-standard security measures designed to protect personal data, account information, and transactions made through the WorkLocally platform.

This page explains how we protect information when you use the WorkLocally website.

Secure Website Connection

All connections to the WorkLocally website are protected using HTTPS encryption powered by Transport Layer Security (TLS).

TLS ensures that information exchanged between your browser and our servers is encrypted and protected from interception by third parties.

You can verify a secure connection by checking for the padlock icon and HTTPS prefix in your browser's address bar.

Secure Login Credentials

User login credentials are transmitted securely using encrypted connections.

Passwords are stored using secure hashing techniques and are never stored in plain text.

Users are responsible for keeping their login credentials confidential and should not share account access with anyone else.

Payment Security

Payments on WorkLocally are processed securely through PayPal, our third-party payment processor.

PayPal is a globally recognised payment provider that complies with PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard). This means that payment card information is handled according to strict industry security requirements.

WorkLocally does not store or process credit card details directly. All payment information is handled securely by PayPal.

Platform Security Measures

To help protect our systems and users, WorkLocally implements a range of security controls including:
  • Encrypted HTTPS connections across the platform
  • Secure user authentication systems
  • Protection against common web vulnerabilities
  • Monitoring for suspicious activity
  • Secure hosting infrastructure

User Responsibilities

Users also play an important role in maintaining account security.

Users should:
  • keep their login credentials confidential
  • choose strong passwords
  • avoid sharing account access with others
  • report suspicious activity immediately

Data Protection

We implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures designed to protect personal data from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, or disclosure.

However, no internet-based system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

If you believe you have discovered a security vulnerability or suspect unauthorised activity on the WorkLocally platform, please contact us immediately.
