Security & Data Handling

Security is foundational to a platform trusted with conference programs and speaker data. Here is how we protect it.

Last updated: June 2, 2026

1. Encryption in transit

All traffic to and from submitcfp is encrypted using industry-standard HTTPS/TLS, so data moving between your browser and our servers is protected.

2. Secure hosting

Application data is stored in a managed, access-controlled cloud database. Our infrastructure providers maintain strong physical and network security and recognized compliance certifications.

3. Authentication

Passwords are never stored in plain text — they are salted and hashed using a strong, industry-standard algorithm. Sessions are protected with signed tokens, and access to your data requires authentication.

4. Access controls

The platform enforces role-based access — organizers, co-organizers, reviewers and speakers each see only the data appropriate to their role. Blind-review mode and stage isolation further protect submission and reviewer data.

5. Payment security

Payments, when applicable, are handled entirely by PCI-DSS-compliant processors (Stripe and/or Razorpay). submitcfp does not store or process your full card number.

6. Responsible disclosure

If you believe you have found a security vulnerability, please report it privately to contact@submitcfp.com with enough detail to reproduce it. Please give us a reasonable opportunity to investigate and remediate before any public disclosure. We appreciate the security community’s help in keeping submitcfp safe.

7. Incident response

We monitor for suspicious activity and maintain procedures to investigate and respond to incidents. In the event of a data breach affecting your personal data, we will notify affected users and relevant authorities as required by law.

8. Your role

You help keep your account secure by using a strong, unique password and keeping your credentials private. If you suspect any unauthorized access, contact us immediately at contact@submitcfp.com.
