Personal Data

Our Privacy Policy and MyLife Terms of Use outline how we process your personal data

The MyLife website may contain links or references to other websites for the convenience of users. By clicking on such links you may be accessing an external website. Such links or references are not an endorsement by Irish Life of any third party or any third party products and services. This Website Use Policy only covers websites that we own and control. It does not cover links to other websites and accordingly any information collected by those parties that own and control those websites or their use of cookies.
Please be aware that individual organizations operate their own policies regarding the use and sale of personal information and the use of cookies. If you have a concern regarding the way your personal information will be used on other sites then you are advised to read the relevant privacy statement or in the absence of such a statement on the site, contact the company concerned.

Security

We take great care to ensure the security of this site. The IRISH LIFE Network is protected by a firewall system, which forms a barrier between the outside Internet and the internal network. The purpose of a firewall is to ensure only authorised traffic is allowed to pass to IRISH LIFE systems and networks - all other traffic from the Internet is rejected.
The firewall verifies the source and destination of each network packet, and determines whether or not to let the packet through. Access is denied if the packet is not directed at a specific, available service. The firewall is used to shield the IRISH LIFE internal network from the Internet. The security system includes the use of a secure browser to access information and perform transactions. It allows for the transfer of digitally signed certificates for authentication procedures and provides message integrity, so that information cannot be tampered with in transit. Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Apple Safari are all secure browsers.
The data you provide to us through a secure browser is protected using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology. SSL is the industry standard method of encrypting personal information and credit card details so that they can be securely transferred over the Internet.
