Technical and organizational security measures (Annex II)
- User identification and authorization: Every organisation's data is isolated by row-level security; only authenticated users of that organisation can access it. Provider staff access to the admin console requires single sign-on behind an access gateway.
- In transit: All traffic between the browser extension, the web app and the backend is encrypted with TLS.
- At rest: Customer Personal Data is stored in the EU region of the database sub-processor (Supabase), encrypted at rest.
- Events logging: Policy-enforcement and audit events (action type, outcome, policy applied) are logged per organisation and available to the Customer's administrators.
- Data minimization: Detection and redaction run on the user's device; prompt and file content never leave the device. Only metadata is stored (AI service domain, timestamp, organisation/user identifiers, policy outcome).
- Limited data retention: Discovery and audit events are retained for at most 24 months unless agreed otherwise with the Customer, then deleted.
