Our data principles
Our approach to data governance is one of continual improvement. Standards for data governance are constantly evolving, and so we are constantly looking across the digital health industry to learn and improve.
We encrypt all data we process and/or store. Encryption is used on all our processes, so you can rest assure that only you and anyone you authorise have access to your data. Access to the data is restricted to specific employees who have a ‘need-to-know’ and who are bound by confidentiality obligations.
All staff are trained in data handling
Data handling and data security training is mandatory for all our employees, and it is part of their induction process. These training sessions teaches our employees to understand security risks and threats, and how to react to prevent any attempt or attack on our data. Refresher trainings and updates are organised with the team to ensure themes accurate and up to date information is being shared.
All application data is stored in UK-based data centres
Hero health is committed to ensuring effective safeguards are applied to the information it holds. When it comes to storing your data, we are only using UK based data centres, carefully chosen and with highest levels of security and confidentiality.
We only work with selected tech partners, who are vetted to ensure their data compliance
Whenever we need to work with other organisations, we select our partners very carefully, ensuring they share our values and high standards when it comes to data compliance.
