How we handle your data

Built for sensitive data

Verification means handling identity information, so SMARTDATAS is built around collecting the minimum, showing the minimum, and keeping a record of who accessed what.

Read our privacy policy

Masked by default

Identity numbers are masked everywhere except for the account that submitted them.

Access is logged

Every verification and result view is recorded against the account that performed it.

Encrypted in transit

The platform is HTTPS-only, with strict transport security enforced.

Retention limits

Generated slip files are purged automatically once their retention window ends.
