Security & Privacy
at ContextSDK
At ContextSDK, security and privacy are integral to everything we do. As we help apps leverage real-world context for enhanced user engagement, we prioritize safeguarding our platform and protecting user data to maintain the highest standards of security and compliance.
Data Protection
Ensuring the security and privacy of data is paramount at ContextSDK. Here are the key aspects of our data protection strategy:
No Personally Identifiable Information (PII) Collected or Used
At ContextSDK, privacy is embedded into the architecture of our technology and business practices from the initial stages of product development. We adhere to strict principles that ensure no Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is collected, stored, or processed. This includes avoiding the use of device IDs, user IDs, or any data that could potentially identify an individual or device. By integrating these privacy considerations into our system design, we minimize personal data usage and enable anonymization wherever possible, significantly reducing the risk of data breaches and enhancing user privacy.
Local Data Processing and Decision Making
All data processing and decision-making occur directly on the user's device. This decentralized approach minimizes the risk of data interception during transmission and reduces reliance on our servers. By processing data locally, we ensure that personalization and context-aware decisions are made instantaneously, enhancing user experience while maintaining strict privacy standards.
Robust Encryption and Secure Data Transmission
We employ the latest encryption standards to secure data at rest and in transit. All data transmitted between devices and our servers is encrypted using HTTPS with TLS 1.2 (or higher) encryption, ensuring that it remains protected against unauthorized access.
Compliance with Global Privacy Regulations
ContextSDK is committed to complying with international data privacy regulations. We are currently in the process of completing our SOC 2 certification. This proactive stance helps us manage compliance effectively and ensures that we meet our obligations to protect user data across all jurisdictions in which we operate.
Product Security
Product security is foundational to our operations at ContextSDK. Here are the critical elements that define our approach:
Continuous Security Assessments
To ensure that our SDK remains secure against evolving threats, ContextSDK undergoes continuous security assessments. This includes regular penetration testing performed by reputable third-party security firms, vulnerability scans at various stages of our development lifecycle, and rigorous security audits. These proactive measures help us identify and mitigate potential security vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
Secure Development Practices
Our development team is committed to maintaining the highest standards of security throughout the software creation process. We follow best practices for secure coding and application security, integrating security considerations into every stage of development. This includes thorough code reviews, the use of static and dynamic analysis tools, and comprehensive automated testing to ensure that our software is secure from the ground up. These rigorous practices help us build and maintain a robust and secure product, safeguarding against potential vulnerabilities.
Enterprise Security
Enterprise security is critical to maintaining the trust and confidence of our clients. Here’s how we ensure robust security measures at the enterprise level:
Endpoint Protection and Device Management
At ContextSDK, we ensure that all corporate devices are equipped with advanced endpoint protection software and are managed through comprehensive mobile device management (MDM) systems. These systems enforce policies such as disk encryption, secure boot, and automatic locking to safeguard against unauthorized access and potential security breaches. Continuous monitoring and real-time security alerts help maintain a secure enterprise environment.
Vendor Risk Management
We implement a stringent vendor risk management process to evaluate and manage the security postures of all third-party service providers. This process includes thorough assessments of vendors' security policies and practices, ensuring they meet our high standards for data protection and security. Regular audits and compliance checks help us manage and mitigate risks associated with external vendors, thereby protecting our supply chain.
Secure Remote Access
To protect access to our internal networks and systems, ContextSDK uses advanced, secure remote access solutions. This includes the use of multi-factor authentication (MFA) and least privilege access controls. These measures ensure that only authorized personnel can access sensitive enterprise resources, regardless of their location, thereby maintaining the integrity and confidentiality of our internal data.
Data Privacy
Enterprise security is critical to maintaining the trust and confidence of our clients. Here’s how we ensure robust security measures at the enterprise level:
