Built for UK GDPR & Youth Safety

Security, Privacy & Data Protection

How UnitSolutions safeguards sensitive member records, health information, and leader credentials in compliance with UK GDPR standards.

30-Day Auto-Purge Policy (Starter Forms)

To minimize data liability and ensure strict compliance with data minimization principles, parent-submitted magic link starter forms are permanently purged from active storage 30 days after submission.

Leader responsibility: Leaders are responsible for transferring essential member and medical information into official governing body systems (e.g. GO) within this 30-day window.

Strict Unit Isolation (PostgreSQL Row Level Security)

Every query to our cloud database is protected by database-enforced Row Level Security (RLS). Leaders can only view, create, or update records belonging to units where they are verified leaders or designated helpers.

  • No shared member databases between units
  • Helper roles have restricted access (read-only for registers, no financial or starter form exports)

AES-256 On-Device Encryption for Offline Storage

When using UnitSolutions offline (e.g. taking registers on camp or in community halls with zero mobile signal), cached data is protected by AES-GCM 256-bit encryption via the Web Crypto API.

Crypto keys are stored as non-exportable key objects directly in browser IndexedDB, preventing client-side script extraction or unauthorized inspection.

Data Controller vs Data Processor

Under UK GDPR guidelines, UnitSolutions operates as a Data Processor providing digital productivity tools. The individual Unit or charity organization remains the Data Controller.

We never monetize, sell, or advertise against young people's or parents' data.
