Power AMS

How we protect your data

Last updated · May 19, 2026

Associations trust PowerAMS with member records, payment history, and event registrations. Here's how we keep that data safe.

Infrastructure

PowerAMS runs on enterprise cloud infrastructure with isolated network environments, hardened images, and 24/7 monitoring. Production data lives in encrypted data stores backed up daily.

Encryption

In transit

All connections to PowerAMS — web app, mobile app, and APIs — use TLS 1.2 or higher. HSTS is enforced on app.powerams.com.

At rest

Customer data, including database contents and backups, is encrypted at rest using AES-256.

Access control

  • Role-based permissions inside the platform (Admin, Event Manager, Membership Coordinator, Finance, Read-only).
  • Internal Power AMS access is limited to authorized engineers on a need-to-know basis.
  • All internal access to production is logged.
  • Multi-factor authentication is required for all Power AMS employee accounts.

Payments

Card processing runs through MXMerchant. Card numbers are tokenized at the processor — Power AMS does not store full card details. Payments are PCI DSS compliant via the processor.

Backups and recovery

  • Daily encrypted backups of the production database.
  • Point-in-time recovery available within the retention window.
  • Backups are tested regularly.

Incident response

We maintain a documented incident response plan. In the event of a security incident affecting customer data, we will notify affected customers without undue delay and provide the information they need to comply with their own legal obligations.

Report a suspected vulnerability or incident to info@powerams.com.

Compliance and audits

We're happy to share our current SOC 2 status, security questionnaire (CAIQ), and DPIA materials under NDA. Contact info@powerams.com to request them.

Your responsibilities

Customers are responsible for keeping their staff credentials secure, enabling multi-factor authentication where available, and using the platform's role-based access controls to scope staff appropriately.
