Trust and Compliance

This page is maintained by EMEA Contech to answer common security, privacy, and deployment questions about our products. It describes enabled controls and current practices; it is not a third-party certification.

Security

Security posture

  • ISO 27001 alignment in progress - information security management system aligned with ISO 27001 controls; certification audit in progress.
  • Encryption in transit and at rest across all customer data.
  • Single sign-on (SSO) via enterprise identity providers.
  • Role-based access control (RBAC) with least-privilege defaults.
  • Application-level audit logging on every evaluation decision.
  • No public LLMs - private models run inside the customer tenancy; no third-party model provider sees customer submissions.

Privacy

Data privacy

  • GDPR ready and EU AI Act ready.
  • Data minimization - only the data needed for the evaluation is processed.
  • Source-linked outputs - every finding cites the exact page, clause, or BOQ cell it came from.
  • Customer data is never used to train shared models.
  • Ticketed vendor support access only - no permanent vendor access into customer environments.

Deployment

Deployment models

ModelWhat it means
Private CloudSingle-tenant managed environment, isolated per customer.
On-Premise / Customer VPCDeployed inside the customer's own infrastructure or virtual private cloud.
GCC Sovereign / Government CloudData residency in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, or Oman government cloud regions.

Governance

Access and governance

Access roles are defined before rollout. Least-privilege is the default. Separation of duties is enforced for tender boards: the reviewer, the approver, and the awarder are distinct roles, and every decision carries a full evidence trail back to the source documents.

AI recommends, humans decide. Qualification status is always presented as a reviewable recommendation, never an automated award.
