Deletion Policy

1.    Platform takes a principled approach to the storage and deletion of Customer Data. Platform is engineered to achieve a high degree of speed, availability, durability, and consistency, and the design of systems optimized for these performance attributes must be balanced carefully with the need to achieve timely data deletion.

2.    When you delete your Customer Data, Platform’s deletion begins by confirming the deletion request and eliminating the data iteratively from application and storage layers, from both active and backup storage systems. This process is described generally in Platform’s statement on deletion and retention.

3.    Deletion occurs in phases, beginning with marking the data for deletion in active storage systems immediately and isolating the data from ordinary processing. Then overwrite the deleted data over time. Cryptographic erasure is also used to render the deleted data unrecoverable. Finally, backup systems of Platform’s active systems are retired.

4.    Deletion from application and storage layers may occur immediately depending on how storage of the data has been configured and the timing of ongoing deletion cycles in the relevant storage layers and data centers. Deletion from active systems typically completes within about 30 days of the deletion request. Finally, Customer Data is removed from Platform’s long-term backup systems, which preserve copies of Platform systems for up to 30 days to guard against natural disasters and catastrophic events.

Fraud Alert

BEWARE OF SCAMS IMPLYING ASSOCIATION WITH THE ORPHANS CARE FEDERATION

The Orphans Care Federation has been made aware of various correspondences, being circulated via e-mail, from Internet web sites, text messages and via regular mail or facsimile, falsely stating that they are issued by, or in association with the Orphans Care Federation and/or its officials. These scams, which may seek to obtain money and/or in many cases personal details from the recipients of such correspondence, are fraudulent.

The Orphans Care Federation wishes to warn about these fraudulent activities being perpetrated purportedly in the name of the Organization, and/or its officials, through different fraud schemes.

The Orphans Care Federation does not request any information related to bank accounts or other private information.

The Orphans Care Federation does not offer prizes, awards, funds, certificates, automated teller machine (ATM) cards, compensation for Internet fraud, or scholarships, or conduct lotteries.

The Orphans Care Federation strongly recommends that the recipients of solicitations, such as those described above exercise extreme caution in respect of such solicitations. Financial loss and identity theft could result from the transfer of money or personal information to those issuing such fraudulent correspondence. Victims of such scams may also report them to their local law enforcement authorities for appropriate action.
