Security

Your data, our top priority

We treat your data like our own, follow industry-leading standards to protect it, and never use it in ways you wouldn't expect.

Overview

Our commitment to protecting your data

At GitScope, transparency is important to us. We want our customers to clearly understand our product and our security and privacy practices.

Never trained on

Your repository metadata and scan results are never used to train AI models — by us or our service providers.

Never sold

We never sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing or advertising.

Always encrypted

All data is encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (HTTPS/TLS). Industry-standard protection everywhere.

Encryption

Data protection at rest and in transit

Encryption at Rest

All sensitive data stored on our servers — including scan results, findings, OAuth tokens, and account information — is encrypted at rest using AES-256, the same standard used by leading cloud providers and financial institutions.

Scan results & compliance scores
Security findings & remediation history
GitHub OAuth tokens
Account metadata

Encryption in Transit

All communication between your browser and our servers is protected by HTTPS with TLS 1.2 or higher. This applies to every request: authentication, dashboard activity, scan operations, and API calls. Unencrypted HTTP connections are automatically redirected to HTTPS.

Browser ↔ server traffic (HTTPS/TLS 1.2+)
GitHub API communication
Payment processing
Slack & Linear integration webhooks

Data & Privacy

What we never do with your data

No Training on Your Data

Your repository metadata and scan results are never used to train, fine-tune, or otherwise improve any AI model — neither by us nor by any of our service providers.

Data Ownership

You retain full ownership of your GitHub organization data. We act solely as a data processor on your behalf. Your repository settings and compliance data belong to you — always.

Your Data Is Never Sold

We never sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing or advertising. Your data is never monetized or sold to data brokers or advertisers.

Account Security

MFA, sessions, and account controls from your profile

Two-Factor Authentication (MFA)

Add an extra layer of security with two-factor authentication. Enable MFA from Profile → Two-Factor Authentication in your dashboard. Use an authenticator app — you'll receive recovery codes to regain access if you lose your device.

Browser Sessions

View your active sessions across browsers and devices from Profile → Browser Sessions. If you suspect your account has been compromised, you can log out of all other browser sessions at once — keeping only your current session active.

Subprocessors & Vendors

How we evaluate and manage third-party providers

Vendor Evaluation & Ongoing Reviews

Before working with any third-party subprocessor or vendor, GitScope carefully evaluates their privacy, security, and confidentiality practices.

Key subprocessors include infrastructure hosting providers, GitHub (for repository access), billing providers, and integration partners such as Slack and Linear. All subprocessors are reviewed periodically to ensure ongoing compliance with our security and privacy standards.

See our Subprocessors page for the full list. For privacy details, see our Privacy Policy.

Access Control

Who can see and do what

User & Role Permissions

Access control is fully manageable by you. Invite members, create and assign roles with granular permissions for repositories, policies, and integrations.

See the Roles & permissions section on our homepage for details.

Your Rights

Export, delete, and control your data

Export Your Data

You can download a copy of your personal data at any time from your profile. Go to Profile → Export Your Data and click the export button. The download includes:

  • Account info (name, email, created date)
  • Team memberships (teams you belong to, your role in each)
  • Pending team invitations
  • Active browser sessions

The export is a JSON file scoped to your account.

Data Residency Options

To support customers with data sovereignty requirements — particularly those subject to GDPR or other regional regulations — we are developing explicit data residency controls.

European Union (EU)

EU data centres, GDPR-compliant.

United States (US)

US data centres for US-based teams.
