Security at ACF Compliance

ACF Compliance® handles ultra-sensitive data: enterprise AI inventories, high-risk classifications, DPIAs and legal Submission Files. We apply a rigorous security posture, calibrated to the expectations of CIOs, CISOs, DPOs and operational counsels.

Security architecture

Six pillars, one single standard

EU sovereign hosting

Platform hosted on Vercel (Frankfurt, Germany) and Supabase EU (Frankfurt) on AWS eu-central-1 infrastructure. Option for sovereign French hosting (OVHcloud / Scaleway) in the Enterprise catalogue.

End-to-end encryption

AES-256-GCM at rest for all sensitive data and integration tokens. TLS 1.3 in transit, HSTS preload, short-lived certificates. Application secrets sealed by a derived master key, never exposed client-side.

Ed25519 audit chain

Every major compliance decision (AI Act classification, AIPD generation, Submission File transmission) is timestamped and cryptographically signed (SHA-256 + Ed25519). Chain verifiable independently via public API.

Qualified eIDAS timestamping (optional)

For documents requiring stronger legal weight, qualified RFC 3161 timestamping (Enterprise option via a recognised European QTSP, eIDAS art. 42). Seal recognised before EU jurisdictions.

OAuth 2.0 + PKCE across 9 connectors

Native connectors for Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Microsoft Teams, Slack, Notion, Jira, Asana, HubSpot, Salesforce. OAuth 2.0 with PKCE, minimum read-only scopes, tokens encrypted in DB, automatic rotation, never read or manipulated client-side.

RBAC + Supabase Row Level Security

Four application roles: owner, admin, compliance_lead, member. Strict per-organisation isolation via Postgres RLS, double-layer Next.js middleware + SQL policies. No cross-org leakage possible even in case of an application bug.

Certifications & compliance

A clear direction, documented milestones

We only claim what we can demonstrate. The statuses below are updated at every audit milestone.

GDPR article 32 — Technical measures in place

Documented technical and organisational measures (encryption, pseudonymisation, integrity, confidentiality, resilience, regular testing). ROPA and DPIA up to date.

Independently verifiable audit trail

Reconstructible cryptographic chain exportable as a signed PDF. Format that takes into account CNIL guidance (GDPR article 5.2 — accountability) and AI Office (AI Act article 12 — logs).

EU AI Act — Self-assessment

ACF Compliance does not operate a high-risk AI system within the meaning of Annex III of the regulation. Article 50 transparency notice published for the conversational AI module (Advisor).

ISO 42001 / 27701 — Alignment in progress

Artificial Intelligence Management System (42001) and Privacy Information Management System (27701) frameworks integrated into the 2027 quality roadmap.

Sub-processors programme

Partial list, full transparency

We document every sub-processor: purpose, location, cross-border transfer mechanism. Exhaustive list and detailed DPA available in the contractual annex.
