# Data handling and privacy

> How IDmeta protects personal data and privacy with security and compliance measures

IDmeta prioritizes security and regulatory compliance. Key practices include:

* **ISO 27001 standards** — Industry-leading framework for information security.
* **Encryption** — TLS (in transit) and AES-256 (at rest) safeguard all sensitive data.
* **Regulatory compliance** — Aligns with local laws such as PDPA Malaysia, as well as global privacy regulations.
* **Minimal data retention** — Data is stored only as long as required for verification and compliance purposes.
* **Role-based access control** — Only authorized personnel can view or manage sensitive data.

These measures ensure trust and protect both businesses and individuals during the verification process.
