Types of cookies we use:
- Essential cookies: These are necessary to maintain login sessions and keep the platform's core functionality running.

Information Security Measures
8 Technical Security
8mbt applies industry-leading security measures to keep your information safe:
- SSL/TLS encryption: All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is protected by industry-standard SSL encryption.
- Data encryption: Stored sensitive information — especially financial data — is protected by strong encryption algorithms.
- Firewalls and intrusion detection: Our servers are protected by multi-layered firewalls and real-time intrusion detection systems.
- Access controls: Only authorized personnel can access your personal information, and only for specific purposes.
- Regular security testing: Our systems undergo regular security audits and vulnerability assessments.
However, no information transmitted over the internet is completely risk-free — so while we take every precaution, we cannot guarantee 100% security. Keeping your account password confidential and avoiding logging in on unfamiliar devices is your own responsibility.
