Organizational Security
Information Security Program
We have an Information Security Program in place that is communicated throughout the organization. Our

Accountants. We achieved SOC 2 Type I compliance on March 29, 2023, and plan to achieve SOC 2 Type II
compliance in Fall 2023.
Third-Party Audits
Our organization undergoes independent third-party assessments to test our security and compliance
controls.
Third-Party Penetration Testing
We perform an independent third-party penetration at least annually to ensure that the security posture
of our services is uncompromised.
