Data Uploads Data uploads are completed by credit unions by the 8 th day of each month so that the drawings may occur by the 14 th. No central drawings or credit union drawings can be performed until all data has been uploaded and accepted. Prior to submitting data, a quality check should be performed.

13 Data Security 1. Your members’ SSNs will be included on the standard monthly data report that you generate at your credit union. 2. When you enter the Save to Win administrative area and choose to upload data, the data will be protected by an SSL Certificate. This change is easily recognizable as the URL will change to begin with “https” and a small lock will appear in the lower right hand corner of your screen. 3. As the data is transmitted securely, a one way hash algorithm will encrypt the SSN and store that in a temporary table, which will be unique for each user/SSN combination. 4. The data uploaded will be destroyed, and the hash in the temporary table will be used during the rest of the import process. 5. The final upload file to MCUL and Affiliates will include only the hash value. This will be used to cross-reference monthly data, flag data errors, and report product data.
