Consent-Based Storage: Data is only stored with the user’s consent and used solely for its intended purpose.

User Control: Farmers have full control over their data, including the ability to edit or permanently delete records at any time.

Permanent Deletion: When a farmer chooses to delete their account, all associated files and records are fully and permanently removed from our system, with no residual data retained.

OAuth 2.0 Authentication: We use industry-standard OAuth for secure user login.

This ensures:

- No passwords are stored or exposed directly.
- Access tokens are securely managed.
- User access is role-based and permission-controlled, reducing the risk of unauthorised access.

At-Rest Encryption: All stored data is encrypted to prevent unauthorised access.

In-Transit Encryption: We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) / Transport Layer Security (TLS) to secure communication between users and the platform, ensuring data cannot be intercepted or tampered with during transmission.

Our platform is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) EC2, leveraging AWS’s robust, enterprise-grade security features:

- Secure Physical Infrastructure: AWS data centres meet ISO 27001, SOC 1/2/3, and PCI DSS compliance standards.
- Firewalls & Access Control: Our EC2 instance is protected by AWS Security Groups, which restrict access to authorised traffic only.
- Automated Patching & Monitoring: AWS provides automatic security updates, continuous monitoring, and AI-driven threat detection to guard against cyber threats.
