SCHEDULE 1 BACK UP POLICY
Purpose The technology used to facilitate data backups at Smile Genius is to provide a real time backup of customer data for disaster recovery purposes only. The backup service allows for data to be stored off site in Amazon Web Services.
Scope
The service and hence this policy has been designed and implemented with disaster recovery/business continuity (i.e. the ability to recover at a selected point in time from the previous 90 days) in the event of a partial or total loss of data) as a key deliverable and is not therefore designed as a method of archiving material for extended periods of time. The ‘data’ backups cover all customer data and files managed by Smile Genius.
• A full backup of all data is performed each night
• Full backups are retained for 90 days.
• Point and time restore is available for these backups within the last 90 days
SCHEDULE 2 EMPLOYEE ACCESS POLICY

Application and Data Security
The following security measures are in place at the application level: All passwords are encrypted in the Database. All web applications use a TLS 1.2 128 bit key and are not accessible via a non-secure connection. We provide encryption in transit using HTTPS by default on all Smile Genius domains. All Java Applet jars are signed with a security certificate. The login process for Clinic requires three pieces of data, Username, Password and One Time Password/code .
