Trust & security

Safety over hype.

For European SMEs and international teams, data protection isn't optional. We act as a risk-reduction partner: compliant, secure and resilient by default — and honest about what we don't claim.

Defence in depth

Four layers, every project.

Security is designed in from the first workshop — not bolted on before launch.

People

Named engineers only, MFA everywhere, least-privilege access reviewed every quarter, and production access logged.

Data

Data minimisation by design, AES-256 encryption at rest, retention rules and the right to erasure built into the product.

Application

Role-based access control, secure sessions, audit logs and dependency scanning on every release.

Infrastructure

Hosting in EU regions (Frankfurt, Ireland, Amsterdam) by default, TLS 1.3 in transit, verified backups and monitored uptime.

Standards we build to

Privacy by design, not by checklist.

GDPR (AVG in the Netherlands) principles are part of the scope document, the architecture and the hand-over — so your compliance team gets evidence, not promises.

GDPR / AVG ready

Data minimisation, processing records and erasure flows built into the product.

  • Data minimisation
  • Right to erasure
  • Clear audit logs

MFA & access control

Multi-factor authentication and role-based access by default — for your users and our engineers.

  • Standard 2FA
  • Granular roles
  • Secure sessions

EU data residency

We typically host on AWS or Azure in Frankfurt, Ireland or Amsterdam to meet local requirements.

  • EU regions by default
  • No surprise sub-processors
  • Latency optimised

Data Processing Agreement

Signed before kickoff · EU model clauses

Compliance documents

We sign the DPA up front.

Plain-language Data Processing Agreements aligned with standard EU model clauses. You stay the controller; Builtapps acts only as processor.

Encrypted at rest and in motion

Sensitive fields and file storage encrypted with AES-256; TLS 1.3 enforced for all traffic.

Strict internal access rules

Production data is touched only when necessary for debugging — via MFA-secured access with audit trails.

Radical honesty

What we do not claim.

No fake certifications or badges we have not earned.

No exaggerated compliance claims — we tell you what we guarantee and what we don’t.

If a requirement is outside our scope, we say so before you sign.

Start a conversation

Security is a process.

We continuously monitor and improve the systems we deliver. Ask us for a security review of an existing system — we'll tell you plainly what we find.
