AES-256 encryption

Your accounting data is securely hosted in Europe

Our primary data infrastructure is hosted in the European Union. Data is encrypted at rest and in transit, with strict access controls and comprehensive logging. Where specific features rely on authorized third-party service providers, limited data may be processed outside the European Union subject to appropriate safeguards and our Privacy Policy.
