Compliance

Compliant, not certified. And honest about the difference.

We operate to the controls each framework requires, and we say so without implying a third-party attestation we don't yet hold. Every claim below is mapped to an internal evidence file; every 🟢 is customer-visible.

The stance in plain English

Three rules for every public compliance claim.

If we can't operationalise it, we don't claim it.

Frameworks we align with get a badge. Frameworks we are audited against get a different badge. The badges don't overlap.

Every claim lists its scope.

HIPAA safeguards on enterprise contracts, BAA available on request once the template is countersigned. No blanket certifications implied by the landing page.

Evidence, on request.

Security reviewers can request the underlying control documentation, penetration-test summaries, and sub-processor annex. We turn these around in under two business days.

Frameworks we align with

What each badge actually means.

Click any badge on the landing, enterprise, or security pages and you'll land in one of the sections below. Every entry is worded to describe operational alignment, not third-party attestation.
