We are very aware of how the security of yours and your users' data is incredibly important. Every piece of data sent from and to Hoot over the internet is encrypted. What's more, all data stored on our servers is encrypted too.

Our data centre is hosted in the United Kingdom on a network which guarantees 99.9% up-time. We backup every piece of data several times a day, and if something should go wrong, we have a robust and fast-acting plan to put things right.

All Hoot team members are Enhanced DBS checked. Just another demonstration of how we know that your data in very sensitive and you do not want it to be handled by anyone who shouldn't be.

As well as ensuring your data is safe, we know too that your users will have concerns. The European Union is in the process of introducing GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), 'the most important change in data privacy regulation in 20 years'. We have poured over the legislation and made sure that the way we hold data, the questions we ask, the permissions we seek and most importantly what we do with the data when it's been used, all conform with the new rules.

We've read the legislation and done the hard work for your peace of mind - and so you don't have to!
