Authentic Intellect Publications Security Policy

Authentic Intellect Publications (“AIP,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to maintaining reasonable safeguards designed to protect the security, integrity, and confidentiality of information entrusted to us. This Security Policy describes the general practices we use to help protect customer, member, account, transaction, and other information associated with our website and services.

Effective Date: August 17, 2026

1. Our Core Commitment to Information Security

   AIP uses administrative, technical, and operational safeguards intended to protect personal and business information from unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, disclosure, or loss.

   Access to information is limited according to operational need and the functions required to operate AIP, provide customer services, maintain accounts, process transactions, fulfill orders, and support our website and business operations.

2. Account and Access Controls

   AIP uses access and authentication controls intended to limit unauthorized access to customer, member, and administrative systems. These measures may include:

   • Authentication safeguards
   • Restricted administrative access
   • Account and session security controls
   • Secure password-handling practices
   • Access controls appropriate to system functions

   User passwords are not stored by AIP as readable plain-text passwords. Password credentials maintained by AIP are protected using secure password-hashing practices.

3. Transmission Security

   AIP uses HTTPS/TLS encryption to help protect information transmitted between supported web browsers and the AIP website.

   Customers should verify that they are using the official AIP website and a secure connection before submitting personal information.

4. Payment Security

   AIP uses a third-party payment-processing service to process customer payment transactions. Payment information submitted through the payment process is handled in accordance with the payment provider's applicable security practices and systems.

   AIP limits its handling of payment information to what is reasonably necessary to process transactions, maintain order and transaction records, provide customer support, and administer purchases.

5. Hosting and Infrastructure

   AIP operates its website using professionally managed hosting and supporting technology services. We rely on a combination of provider-level protections and AIP-managed controls to support the security and availability of our website and systems.

   Security practices may include access controls, network and server protections, software maintenance, monitoring, logging, and other safeguards appropriate to the systems being operated.

6. Service Providers and Operational Security

   Certain AIP services depend on outside providers that perform functions such as payment processing, physical product production and fulfillment, shipping, communications, hosting, and related technical operations.

   Information may be provided to these service providers when reasonably necessary for them to perform services on behalf of AIP or complete a customer-requested transaction.

   AIP does not sell or rent customer personal information. Additional information about how personal information may be used or disclosed is provided in the AIP Privacy Policy.

7. Messaging and Contact Information

   Contact information, communication preferences, and messaging consent records are maintained as necessary to manage communications and provide requested services.

   AIP does not sell or share phone numbers, SMS consent records, or related messaging information with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

8. Internal Data Handling Practices

   AIP follows operational practices intended to:

   • Limit collection of information to legitimate business purposes
   • Restrict administrative access to appropriate functions
   • Protect account and authentication information
   • Maintain transaction and operational records where necessary
   • Monitor and investigate unusual or unauthorized activity when identified
   • Maintain appropriate system and administrative logs

   Operational records and system logs may be maintained for troubleshooting, security, auditing, fraud prevention, and business administration.

9. Incident Response

   If AIP becomes aware of a security incident affecting its systems or information under its control, we will take reasonable steps appropriate to the circumstances. Depending on the nature of the incident, those steps may include:

   • Investigating the incident
   • Taking appropriate containment or corrective measures
   • Reviewing affected systems or accounts
   • Working with relevant service providers when necessary
   • Complying with applicable legal notification requirements
10. Customer and Member Responsibilities

    Security also depends on responsible account use. Customers and members are responsible for:

    • Maintaining the confidentiality of their login credentials
    • Using a strong and unique password
    • Not sharing account access credentials with unauthorized persons
    • Using trusted devices and secure network connections where practical
    • Signing out of accounts when using shared or public devices
    • Promptly reporting suspected unauthorized account access to AIP

    If you believe your AIP account or information may have been compromised, please contact AIP as soon as possible.

11. No System Is Completely Secure

    AIP takes information security seriously; however, no website, network, computer system, transmission method, or storage system can guarantee absolute security.

    AIP therefore cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, loss, disclosure, or other security events will never occur. We continually seek to use reasonable safeguards appropriate to our operations and the information entrusted to us.

12. Policy Updates

    AIP may update this Security Policy as our systems, services, operational practices, or legal obligations change.

    Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.

13. Contact Information

    If you have questions about this Security Policy, believe your AIP account may have been compromised, or need to report a security or privacy concern, please contact us.
