Web server
This server hosts the HTML files as well as the frontend program (CGI program)
which accesses
the database. All internet connection is done by this server. Protected
by SSL protocol.
|
Database server
This server records and hosts all database (RDBMS) information. All customer
information is stored and hosted on this server. The database server is
connected to the web server by a local area LAN connection, using a different
IP address. Therefore, direct access from the internet is not possible.
|
Backup server
This is the backup server for the database server. Backups are run automatically
to allow data
restoration in case of a system breakdown. The backup server is connected
to the database server by a local IP address. Therefore, direct access
from the internet is not possible. |

1. When making a purchase from JPstores, your personal data is sent from
your computer to our web server. The information is secured by SSL encryption.
|
2. When arriving at our web server, your personal data is decoded by our
frontend (CGI) program. After this, it is stored on the database server.
Because the web server and the database server are connected by a local
connection data transfer between them is secure.
|
3. Whenever your personal data is used (i. e. for your personalized My
Page) it is requested from the database server by programs on the web server,
but in no case stored there. When your personal data is sent to your computer
(i. e. for your personalized My Page) it is always secured by SSL encryption.
|
4. The data server (2) and the backup server (3) are not directly connected
to the internet. This setup
protects your data from theft. |
