  1. Introduction

The purpose of this Security Policy is to explain our procedures for the treatment of data in connection with the Services.

  1. Data Protection

We have a Privacy Policy that outlines the protection of your Personal Data in Patently. This policy is in accordance with applicable law including the General Data Protection Regulation ((EU) 2016/679).

Personal Data is not shared with any LLM provider.

  1. Data Security

Data is shielded against accidental loss, alteration, and unauthorized access using various security controls including:

  • Access Logging – we keep track of who signs in and how they sign in.

  • Code Security – every new or significantly changed feature undergoes rigorous testing and review before it’s deployed.

  • Network Security – we implement SSH access, which secures communication channels by encrypting the data exchanged between your browser and Patently. This ensures that sensitive information, such as passwords and data, is protected from security threats.

  • HTTPS Implementation – We use SSL and HTTP requests are automatically routed to HTTPS.

  • Encryption – User Content is typically encrypted both in transit and at rest. This means that your data is protected as it travels between systems and when it is stored on servers or in databases.

  1. Backups

We have a Backup and Restore Policy that outlines how User Content is systematically and securely backed up in Patently.

  1. AI tools

Create, one of the Services, uses our AI assistant, Onardo. The Onardo Output is processed by secure on-premises servers located in the UK. All data transfers are encrypted to guarantee the highest level of protection. API calls between Onardo and a Large Language Model (LLM) model (details set out below) are also secure and encrypted, ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of the Onardo Output throughout.

We implement enterprise-level authentication through SAML SSO.

We implement data encryption at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.2+).

LLM model

Onardo is configured to communicate via secure API calls with Open AI and with Anthropic.

Open AI API Platform has been audited and certified for SOC 2 Type 2 compliance.
