Security & Compliance

How we protect your data and meet institutional requirements.

Infrastructure

Hosting

Application hosted on Vercel (SOC 2 Type II certified). Edge functions in multiple regions for low-latency global access.

Database

Neon Postgres (SOC 2 Type II certified). Data encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.3). Automated backups.

API Authentication

API keys are hashed before storage. Keys are transmitted only via HTTPS headers. Rate limiting enforced per key.

Payment Processing

Stripe handles all payment data (PCI DSS Level 1). EHIQ never sees or stores card numbers.

Data Handling

+
Data Sources: All sensor data is derived from public APIs (CBOE, FRED, CoinGecko, DefiLlama, Binance, SEC EDGAR). No proprietary user data is used in sensor calculations.
+
Immutable Ledger: Every sensor reading is written with a server-generated timestamp. No manual override. No retroactive edits. Full audit trail available.
+
Data Retention: Sensor readings are retained indefinitely. API access logs are retained for 90 days. Account data is deleted upon request.
+
Data Residency: Primary data stored in US-East (Neon). Application edge in multiple regions via Vercel. Institutional clients can request specific data residency requirements.
