Can I trust Turn with my personal information?

You can trust Turn. In addition to being a registered background check company with the Professional Background Screening Association (PBSA), we have several layers of security in place in order to keep your information as secure as possible. 

We ruthlessly automate, with a focus on infrastructure as code, security as part of the build process, and rigorous, continuous monitoring. Your PII information is encrypted at rest with AES 256 bit encryption, and in transit to our web and platforms via HTTPS. On the web we use extended validation certificates to prove the authenticity of our web services and to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks. The ‘green bar’ in your web browser is the indication of this certificate. We use strong cryptography with 256-bit keys and practice consistent key rotation.

Once access to consumer PII has been granted, it is not immediately available to the Turn partner. Turn employs an additional level of verification and auditing when the specific PII details (SSN, phone number, email, driver’s license number) are specifically requested. This minimizes the chances for identity theft through screen scraping, hidden photography, casual observation etc.
