Our culture is defined by the ethical use of data

Security first

We put the security of data above all else and use advanced encryption techniques.

Built for privacy

We train machine learning models on anonymised data to protect people’s privacy.

User centered

We only use data to benefit people and build tools to meet their needs.

Transparent and open

We make sure our clients understand how and why we use data because we believe in responsible innovation.

Accountable and robust

We’re accountable to clients and regulators (including the FCA and ICO) and we hold our team to the highest standards.

No compromises

We’d rather step away from an opportunity than compromise on these principles.
