Security and compliance

Our software has never been breached and we have never lost any customer data. We invest heavily to protect your sensitive information against unauthorized access and system failures, ensuring your data is guarded to the highest level, and we recognize that security is an ongoing process, not a singular event – we therefore continuously evaluate and reinforce our security policy and practices.

How is RunMags more secure than desktop software?

With RunMags your data isn’t stored on your computer – the platform is 100% based on cloud technology so if your laptop crashes, is lost, or stolen, all your data remains completely safe and unaffected. In addition, from a business continuity standpoint, in the event of natural disasters or pandemic outbreaks, you can instantly recoup and continue business operation from wherever your team is located, all you need is a 4G connection or better.

We run daily backups of your data so in the event that our platform for any reason is corrupted, we can restore your instance with a 24-hour accuracy. Even if one of your users deliberatively tries to corrupt and delete data, we can always restore it. 

User access

No one has access to your organization unless invited by you and with a level of user permission selected by you. You can remove any invited users whenever you want.

User passwords or Google Sign-On

Users must choose a strong password and automatic lockouts are enforced when incorrect passwords are repeatedly entered. If you leave your computer unattended for an extended period, you will be automatically logged out.

An even safer way is to have users sign in using Google Sign-on. Then they don't need to remember a password for RunMags.

Steps you can take to stay protected

We work very hard to keep RunMags secure. Here are some simple steps you can take to stay protected:

  • Create a password nobody can guess, so no dictionary words or family names. Be cryptic or use multi-word pass phrases – easy to remember, hard to crack.
  • Don’t share your password with anybody.
  • Don’t write your password on a sticky note and attach it to your computer.
  • Keep your browser software up to date.
  • Make sure you only log in at app.runmags.com.
