Security, privacy & compliance

Data engagements include access design, minimisation and documented review criteria; client data is never used to train models.

Data protection

We handle data in line with UK GDPR principles — only the data needed for your engagement, for only as long as it's needed.

Access control

Named accounts, multi-factor authentication and least-privilege access for everyone who touches your systems.

Secure information handling

Encrypted connections and reputable, access-controlled platforms for anything we store or transfer.

Backup & recovery

Where backups are in scope, they are protected, scheduled and test-restored — with evidence.

Privacy

Your data is never sold, shared or used to train AI models. Confidentiality is the default, not an add-on.

Business continuity

Documented runbooks and escalation paths mean the service doesn't stop when one person is away.

We do not claim certifications or accreditations on your behalf. Where formal compliance is required, we prepare your controls and evidence for assessment by the appropriate body.
