Security & Trust

Built for the information governments entrust to us

EffiGov handles calls between residents and their local government. This page is the plain-language overview of how we protect that information: US-based data infrastructure, encryption, least-privilege access, and independently verifiable evidence in our live Trust Center.

Live Trust Center

Our compliance status, security controls, penetration test reports, and policy documents are published in real time, monitored and powered by Oneleet. SOC 2 Type II audit in progress.

US-Based Data

Data is hosted with reputable United States-based infrastructure providers. Your community's information stays in the US.

Encryption

Our systems are designed to protect data in transit and at rest using widely adopted encryption methods.

Access Management

Access is limited to those who need it to operate and support our services: role-based, least-privilege, with internal access controls.

Compliance & Monitoring

SOC 2 Type II audit in progress. We align our practices with recognized security standards and monitor our environment on an ongoing basis.

Independent Testing

Penetration test reports and policy documents are published through our live Trust Center, so you can verify rather than take our word.

Incident Response

We maintain processes to identify and respond to security incidents, and to communicate with affected customers consistent with law and contract.

Our Approach

EffiGov, Inc. ("EffiGov," "we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting the information entrusted to us by the local governments and communities we serve. We use commercially reasonable, industry-standard administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the information we handle against unauthorized access, use, or disclosure, and we review our practices as our business and the threat landscape evolve.

This page is provided for informational purposes only. It does not form part of any contract and does not create any representation, warranty, or commitment. Any binding security obligations are set out solely in the written agreement between EffiGov and its customers; in the event of a conflict, that agreement governs. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
