◆ Security & data protection

Your residents’ data, protected by design

Care records are special-category data under UK GDPR — the highest tier. CareBackOffice is built to treat them that way.

How we protect data

Security built into the platform

Your data kept separate

Every organisation’s data is isolated in the database itself, not just in the application. Automated checks confirm no data can cross between customers.

Secure sign-in

Passwords are stored as strong one-way hashes, repeated failed attempts lock the account, password strength rules are enforced, and sessions can be revoked instantly.

Right people, right homes

Role-based permissions mean staff see only what their role allows — and managers see only their own homes.

A complete audit trail

Every change records who did what, and when — attributable, contemporaneous and enduring. The accountability evidence UK GDPR expects.

Encrypted in transit

All traffic uses HTTPS, with modern browser security protections applied to every response.

GDPR tools built in

Subject access requests produce a password-protected export of everything held about a resident. Discharged residents can be anonymised, while financial records are kept for the required retention period.

Your data is always yours

A one-click export gives you your whole business — whenever you want it, including if you ever leave.

Cyber Essentials Plus

We’re working towards Cyber Essentials Plus, the UK government-backed certification in which an independent assessor tests our security controls. We’ll update this page when certification is complete.
