Privacy The Next Of Kin Registry is dedicated to protecting your privacy. Your information will not be sold or shared for 3rd party benefit. For privacy reasons we do not list where this information is located. Your information is safe guarded to protect the registrant's privacy. Contact information is only available to Local and State Agencies working in an official capacity, attempting to locate a next of kin or emergency point of contact. The NOKR will NEVER ask for any intrusive information like your social security number or date of birth.  NOKR does ask for age optionally which is used as a chronological identifier. Information collected at the Next Of Kin Registry is stored and kept private. We understand many people have worries about providing such information. It should be understood that the required information collected during registration is very minimal. NOKR actually collects less information than what is currently available in any household phonebook, which is published and distributed for free. Your information is stored with the Next Of Kin Registry for emergencies only. Your information is only accessible to agencies that have registered and must find a family member or emergency contact to help you.     To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place, appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. Security All registrations are processed and sent via secure socket layer (SSL) to the NOKR registry at a separate secure location.  This secured location is User Name and Password Protected. All data is protected under the watchful eye of NOKR's staff. All Internet Data Centers are strategically located on AT&T's, Global Crossing and Cable & Wireless' OC48 / OC192 Global IP backbones. These locations, together with the extensive public and private peering arrangements, are designed to maximize NOKR's Internet reach, bandwidth capacity and to optimize performance. To ensure all data's security, all facilities are staffed 24 hours a day with on-site guards and equipped with both interior and exterior closed circuit television. Access to and from the hosting and monitoring areas is controlled via highly secure mantraps. These single entry, hardened portals are extremely effective at limiting access to the facility to authorized personnel only. The operations of all Internet Data Centers are monitored by regional Network Operations Centers (NOC) with mirrored content displayed in other NOCs for failsafe network system diversity and redundancy. Network security is ensured by state-of-the-art software and hardware for network monitoring and routing, intrusion detection and filtering. The NOCs are staffed on a 24/7 basis by skilled network technicians and analysts, who continuously monitor the data center network infrastructure for any signs of problems. Automated features as well as customized options help network managers to predict - and often, resolve - problems before they arise.
