  • Customer data always belongs to the customer
Data center best practices

We follow operating best practices for data centers:

  • Computation and storage parts of solutions are deployed over separated fire-safe areas to support disaster recovery

External auditing

We perform regular audits to ensure early detection of security issues:

  • We are committed to third-party validations, standards, and certifications of the policies and procedures we use to maintain our customers’ security, privacy, and data integrity 
  • We maintain several different certifications and accreditations to ensure the highest standards of service and reliability for our customers
