Safety and Security
In order to use the Luup service a user must choose a user name or use their mobile phone number as their unique identifier. They must also choose a password and secret question & answer. They will then be given a PIN ("Personal Identification Number") once they have registered. When buying goods and services from online stores (merchants) they may have to enter their PIN.
Luup's mobile applications hold no sensitive data on the device while the user is not logged into the service. Luup also uses SMS but again, no sensitive data is transmitted over this channel.

Famous quotes containing the words safety and, safety and/or security:
“The Declaration [of Independence] was not a protest against government, but against the excess of government. It prescribed the proper role of government, to secure the rights of individuals and to effect their safety and happiness. In modern society, no individual can do this alone. So government is not a necessary evil but a necessary good.”
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
“Firm, united, let us be,
Rallying round our Liberty;
As a band of brothers joined,
Peace and safety we shall find.”
—Joseph Hopkinson (1770–1842)
“When kindness has left people, even for a few moments, we become afraid of them as if their reason had left them. When it has left a place where we have always found it, it is like shipwreck; we drop from security into something malevolent and bottomless.”
—Willa Cather (1876–1947)
