How we protect your data

Eight pillars of our security posture.

Each pillar maps to a clause in our DPA and to the controls catalog in our ISO 27001 SoA. Click through to verify any of them.

Data in flight & at rest

Encryption

TLS 1.3 in transit. AES-256 at rest, customer-managed keys via AWS KMS on Enterprise. Backups encrypted; passphrase escrow for break-glass recovery.

Infrastructure

Hosting & data residency

UK-only by default — AWS eu-west-2 (London), two availability zones. EU-only or on-prem available for Enterprise. No customer data ever leaves the chosen jurisdiction.

Access control

Multi-tenant isolation & access

Row-level isolation by tenant_id on every table. Enforced at the API guard layer before queries reach the database — no SQL injection can ever cross tenants. SSO + SAML + MFA on Enterprise. Externally pen-tested annually.

Evidence trail

Audit & retention

Every action signed and timestamped. 90 days on Starter, 365 days on Pro, indefinite + WORM on Enterprise. Exports to PDF, CSV, JSON for inspections.

Always-on

Resilience & BCDR

99.9% SLA on Starter / Pro · 99.95% on Enterprise. Multi-AZ failover, hourly DB snapshots, quarterly restore drills. Live status at status.vygard.com. SLA credit if missed.

Disclosure

Vulnerability disclosure

security.txt + a published responsible-disclosure policy. Bug-bounty for critical paths. Patch SLAs: critical < 24h, high < 7 days, medium < 30 days. Customers paged in advance for any window over 2 mins.

Privacy by default

Worker privacy

Location only ingested while clocked on. 90-day raw retention then aggregated. Workers can request deletion under GDPR Article 17. Configurable per-sector opt-out policy.

Transparency

Sub-processors

Full register in DPA Schedule B — AWS (hosting), Twilio (SMS / WhatsApp / voice), Stripe (billing), Anthropic (Claude inference, no PII), SendGrid (email). 30-day notice on any change.

Documents on request

Procurement-ready paperwork.

The DPA is published in full. Everything else is one email away — most under 5 working days. NDAs available on request.
