How do we protect the information we receive?

Your personal information is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of our personnel who have special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep the information confidential.

We implement a variety of security measures when a user submits, or accesses their information to maintain the safety of your personal information.

The Mille Lacs Band website is secured with a TLS_AES 128 certificate, a modern security standard that would take an estimated 6 billion years of computing power to crack. The website is built in custom software by the service provider specifically for Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe purposes, and thus is invulnerable to anonymous “Big System” attacks like Wordpress bots. FTP access is granted only to the web developers. WHM access is granted to only the lead developer. Google Analytics access is managed by the Service Provider media team.

How can you opt out, remove or modify information you have provided to us?

Analytics

Google Analytics is a web analytics service offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic. Google uses the data collected to track and monitor the use of our Service. This data is shared with other Google services. Google may use the collected data to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network.

You can opt-out of having made your activity on the Service available to Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. The add-on prevents the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js, and dc.js) from sharing information with Google Analytics about visits activity.
