  • Encrypted backups
  • Strict access policies

Role-Based Access Control

Each user operates within clearly defined permissions. No cross-role privilege exposure.

  • Residents
  • Security Personnel
  • Committee Members
  • Administrators & Vendors

Audit & Traceability

Every critical action is logged with complete audit trail visibility.

  • Visitor approvals
  • Financial transactions
  • Role modifications
  • System configuration changes

Secure Cloud Infrastructure

Hosted on enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure with database isolation per community.

  • Database isolation per community
  • Secure cloud-hosted
  • Multi-region deployment
  • 24/7 monitoring

Data Isolation

Each community's data is completely isolated. No data mixing or cross-contamination possible.

  • Dedicated database per community
  • Isolated storage
  • Separate encryption keys
  • Independent backups

Backup & Disaster Recovery

Automated backups with redundancy mechanisms and business continuity design.

  • Automated backups
  • Redundancy mechanisms
  • Recovery planning

SOC 2 Type II Ready

SOC 2 Trust Service Criteria

GateFlux is architected around the AICPA SOC 2 framework. Our controls address all five Trust Service Criteria relevant to residential management platforms.

CC6

Logical & Physical Access

✓ Implemented

Granular RBAC with capability-based permissions per role. TOTP two-factor authentication enforced for admin accounts. Secure cookies, CSRF tokens, and 30-minute idle session timeout.

CC7

System Monitoring

✓ Implemented

Immutable audit logs with SHA-256 checksums covering all critical actions. Structured logging via Loki/Elasticsearch with Slack and Sentry alerting. 90-day security-channel retention.

CC8

Change Management

✓ Implemented

Deployments follow a structured pipeline with code review, staging validation, and release notes before production rollout.

A1

Availability

✓ Implemented

99.9% uptime SLA backed by redundant cloud infrastructure, automated failover, and 24/7 health monitoring across database, Redis, queue, and storage layers.

C1

Confidentiality

✓ Implemented

Secrets encrypted with AES-256-CBC. Passwords hashed with bcrypt. Tenant data isolated per-database — cross-community access is architecturally impossible.

P1–P8

Privacy

✓ Implemented

Audit log retention by action severity (1–3 years). Data minimisation enforced in collection. Soft-delete with anonymisation workflow implemented for Art. 17 compliance.

GDPR Compliant

GDPR Data Protection Compliance

GateFlux processes personal data of residents, visitors, and staff in accordance with GDPR principles — transparency, minimisation, and individual rights.

Art. 5

Data Minimisation

Only data necessary for community operations is collected. Sensitive fields (passwords, 2FA secrets) are masked in audit trails. No third-party data sharing for advertising.

Art. 6

Lawful Basis

Processing based on contractual necessity (community membership agreement) and legitimate interest (gate security, visitor management, financial billing).

Art. 13

Transparency

Privacy policy disclosed at onboarding covering what data is collected, how it is used, retention periods, and who can access it.

Art. 17

Right to Erasure

Soft-delete with personal data anonymisation workflow for departed residents. Audit log entries for compliance are preserved but personal identifiers are removed on request.

Art. 20

Data Portability

Authorized admins can export resident profiles, visitor history, complaints, and financial records in JSON/CSV formats on request.

Art. 32

Security of Processing

AES-256-CBC encryption for secrets, bcrypt-hashed passwords, OWASP security headers, rate limiting, input sanitisation, and immutable audit logs with checksum verification.

Data Processing Agreement (DPA)

Enterprise customers can request a signed DPA covering sub-processor lists, data retention schedules, breach notification obligations, and standard contractual clauses (SCCs) for cross-border transfers.

DPDP Act 2023 — India

Digital Personal Data Protection Act Compliance

GateFlux is purpose-built for Indian residential communities. As a Data Processor, GateFlux supports society committees (Data Fiduciaries) in fulfilling their obligations under India's DPDP Act, 2023.

S.4 / S.6

Consent & Lawful Basis

Residents provide explicit, informed consent at onboarding. Consent is specific to purpose (gate security, billing, governance). Withdrawal triggers the S.12 erasure workflow.

S.5

Notice to Data Principal

Privacy notice at registration covers data categories, purpose, retention period, and how to exercise rights — available in English and Hindi.

S.8

Data Fiduciary Obligations

GateFlux maintains data accuracy, implements security safeguards, and deletes personal data once purpose is fulfilled or consent withdrawn (resident offboarding workflow).

S.9

Children's Data

Accounts for users under 18 require parental/guardian consent before activation. Behavioural profiling is disabled for minors.

S.11 / S.12

Rights of Data Principal

Data principals can request a full personal data export (S.11) and submit erasure requests (S.12) directly from the app. Requests are processed within 30 days.

S.13

Grievance Redressal

Designated Grievance Officer reachable at privacy@gateflux.co. Grievances acknowledged within 48 hours and resolved within 30 days.

S.8(6)

Breach Notification

Data breaches are reported to the Data Protection Board of India (DPBI) within 72 hours, and affected Data Principals are notified without undue delay.

S.8(7)

Data Retention & Deletion

Personal data retained only for its stated purpose. Automated retention schedules enforce deletion. Audit records follow regulatory retention periods.

S.14

Right to Nominate

Residents will be able to designate a nominee to exercise data rights on their behalf after death or incapacity — currently in development.

Grievance Officer — DPDP Act 2023

Residents and data principals can raise grievances with our designated officer. Responses within 48 hours · Resolution within 30 days.
