Why Smartcat is safe to use
At Smartcat we are aware that linguistic resources are the core asset for businesses. This is why we use the most advanced technologies and practices to keep your data secure and prevent unauthorized access into your account. We don’t display, transfer or share your data with anyone unlike some other companies do, you know.
By accommodating your data in the cloud, you can be sure of its safety. Intruders wouldn’t be able to access it in the case that your computer is stolen or exposed to a virus. Even if your computer is broken, all of your data will be safe and available for you.
We considered any improper manipulation of user data and guarantee complete confidentiality. Your data is secure in your account, and belongs fully and only to you.
All accounts in the system are isolated, so users of one account cannot access the information in another. This means that all linguistic resources are only available to you and the users that you authorize.
For Corporate customers, we can configure the ability to manage users via the company's Single Sign-On (SSO) provider. Smartcat currently supports three major authentication systems: ADFS, Azure AD, and Okta. For details, please refer to this article.
With the strictest level of security (Tier IV) in geographically diverse locations, ensuring much higher protection compared to simply using your own office servers. The data centers are SOC-1, SOC-2, and SOC-3 compliant and staffed and monitored 24/7/365.
We don’t store your payment data; all payments are executed by our payment partners, each of them holding a certified status with Visa's Global Compliant Provider and Mastercard's SDP.
Yet we reserve the translators’ right to register on the platform as freelancers with a public profile and to use such accounts for personal purposes.
For our tech-savvy users
Smartcat uses an HTTPS/TLS protocol to protect data in transit between your computer and our servers, and a 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) — to protect data at rest. For transmitting payment data, we use a TLS 1.2. protocol and RSA algorithm with a 2048-bit key.
Your data is continuously backed up on the database level and is replicated in real time to a Smartcat backup data center. This guarantees we can recover from a complete site failure in our main data center. All infrastructure can be automatically set up in minutes, if needed.
You can instantly limit access to your account using our centralized user access control.
Allows you to authorize at different levels – down to a single document or linguistic resource.
Smartcat employees are prohibited from unauthorized access to client data.
