Security

How we protect your information and your petition.

Effective date: set at publication · This version: September 2026

Summary

Encrypted everywhere

Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest — end to end.

Never shared by us

We never send your information to USCIS or anyone else. You decide when and how to file.

You stay in control

See your data, download your petition, delete your account and data — at any time.

01

Encryption

Every connection to welcomeUSA is encrypted in transit, and your information is encrypted at rest. We do not keep unencrypted copies of your case.

02

Infrastructure

The site and product run on modern cloud infrastructure behind a global network that filters attacks before they reach any system that holds data. Systems are kept up to date, and every change is reviewed before it goes live.

03

Payments, isolated

Card payments are handled by our payment provider on their systems. Your full card number is never stored on our systems.

04

Least access

Inside the company, access to case data is limited to the people and systems that need it to serve you. Support answers product questions; it does not browse cases.

05

Protection required by law

For VAWA, T visa, and U visa cases, federal law — 8 U.S.C. § 1367 — prohibits the government from disclosing information about your case. We keep those cases confidential on our side as well.

06

Your controls

You stay in control: you decide when and how to file, you can download your own materials, and you can delete your account and your data at any time. Deletion is honored on our systems and purged from backups on a short, fixed schedule.

07

Reporting a security issue

If you believe you have found a security issue, please tell us first through the contact page, and we will respond quickly.

How your information is collected, used, and shared is covered in the privacy policy. This page covers how it is protected.
