# How do you ensure the privacy and security of my data?

When you join a research program through one of our health system [partners](https://www.helix.com/health-systems/population-genomics-partners), your information is stored in secure databases. Our IT and security professionals maintain and monitor these databases, ensuring data protection through technical, physical, and administrative safeguards that meet or exceed industry best practices . Technical safeguards include multi-factor authentication, strict access controls, audit/logging, endpoint monitoring, data loss prevention, encryption (at rest and in transit), and robust vendor risk management. While specific configurations are not disclosed, independent third-party auditors annually review our privacy and security programs to ensure safeguards operate as expected and align with industry standards.
