Your Code Stays Yours
We understand that your codebase is one of your most sensitive business assets. It contains your business logic, your competitive advantages, and often your customers' data. Sharing it with an outside party requires trust — and we take that trust seriously. Every engagement begins with a signed Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before any code, documentation, or system access is shared. No exceptions.
What We Protect
Source code and repositories — never shared, copied, or retained beyond the engagement. Architecture diagrams and technical documentation — treated as strictly confidential. Business logic and proprietary algorithms — reviewed in place, not extracted. Credentials and access tokens — handled with least-privilege principles and revoked immediately after the engagement. Audit findings and reports — delivered exclusively to you; never disclosed to third parties.
Our Commitments
We will never disclose the existence of our engagement without your written consent. All findings, vulnerabilities, and recommendations are for your eyes only. We do not retain copies of your code after the engagement concludes. We operate under mutual NDA — your secrets are legally protected, not just promised.
Custom Confidentiality Requirements
Working in a regulated industry? Have specific data handling requirements, compliance obligations (SOC 2, HIPAA, ISO 27001), or internal security policies? We're happy to work within your existing frameworks and sign your organization's preferred NDA. Contact us to discuss your specific requirements before we begin.
Mutual NDA — Standard Practice
Unlike firms that ask you to sign their NDA unilaterally, we operate under a mutual agreement. Your confidentiality obligations to us are no greater than ours to you. We believe that's the only fair way to begin a trust-based engagement.
