This policy explains how I handle the security of work, data, and communications as an independent freelancer operating under the Hakktech name.
1. My Commitment
I take the security of your project and data seriously. Every project I work on follows responsible practices to protect client information, credentials, and source code throughout our engagement.
- ✓ Secure handling of all client credentials and access
- ✓ Encrypted communications for sensitive exchanges
- ✓ Safe coding practices to avoid common vulnerabilities
- ✓ No sharing of client data with third parties
2. Data Handling
Any data, credentials, or confidential information you share with me for the purpose of completing a project is handled with care:
- ✓ Credentials are never stored in plain text or committed to version control
- ✓ Access is revoked or handed back at the end of a project
- ✓ I use environment variables and secret managers where applicable
- ✓ Project files are stored securely and not shared publicly
3. Secure Development Practices
All code I deliver is written with security in mind:
- Input Validation: User inputs are validated and sanitized to prevent injection attacks
- Authentication: Secure auth patterns (hashed passwords, tokens, session management)
- Dependencies: I keep third-party packages up to date and avoid known vulnerable libraries
- HTTPS: All sites are deployed with HTTPS enabled
- Access Control: Proper role-based restrictions are implemented where needed
4. Communications
For sensitive information such as API keys, passwords, or database credentials:
- ✓ Please avoid sending these over plain email
- ✓ Prefer using a secure tool like a password manager share link or an encrypted message
- ✓ I will never ask for more access than is necessary for the work
5. Website & Contact Form Security
This website collects only the information you voluntarily provide through the contact form (name, email, message). That data is:
- ✓ Used only to respond to your inquiry
- ✓ Not sold, shared, or used for marketing without consent
- ✓ Transmitted securely via HTTPS
6. Reporting a Security Issue
If you notice a security concern related to this website or a project I delivered, please reach out directly:
📧 [email protected]
I take all reports seriously and will respond as quickly as possible to investigate and address the issue.
