In order to communicate, provide support and resolve requests, we collect and store the contact information from our customers who have given us authorization to collect, store and use that data.

Section 02:
Architecture

Secure data centers: Tiled hosts its software on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and leverages Amazon facilities in the USA. Amazon provides an extensive list of compliance and regulatory assurances, including SOC 3, and ISO 27001. Because of their stringent security measures, Tiled is able to address compliance with their certifications and third-party attestations:

  • SAS70 Type II audits
  • Level 1 service provider under the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard (DSS)
  • ISO 27001 certification
  • U.S. General Services Administration FISMA-Moderate level operation authorization

Network uptime: We quantify our reliability by offering a 99.5% uptime guarantee to enterprise customers. This guarantee ensures the constant deployment of our services, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. While Tiled strives to keep our systems up at all times, we also make intermittent upgrades or improvements from time to time. Any downtime will be communicated to customers beforehand with sufficient notice.

Encryption: Because Tiled stores your valuable data and in some cases, Personal Identifiable Information (PII) (e.g. name and email), Tiled endeavors to encrypt data wherever possible. As such, we abide by two sets of encryption principles: encryption in transit (https) and encryption at REST. For the former, we aim for all data passing over the wire to be encrypted using standard HTTPS connections. For the latter, data is securely encrypted while stored in our databases. You can find more information on how data is secured here.

Section 03: Content Security

Password authentication: Tiled supports sign-on with a unique username and password. Only salted one-way hashes of passwords are stored by our servers, never the passwords themselves. Individual user identity is authenticated and re-verified with each transaction, using a unique token created at login.

Permission controls: We follow security best practices by using least privilege access principles to protect your data. Role-based permissions system is available to Tiled user administrators. Administrators may:

  • Seize control of a user account if that user’s employment has ended
  • Set permissions for each user, including view-only, edit, and document ownership

Data ownership: Tiled claims no ownership over any documents created through our services. Users retain copyright and any other rights, including all intellectual property rights, on created documents and included content. We respect your privacy and will never make your documents publicly available without permission.

Continuous monitoring: Tiled performs regular internal security design reviews. Our live systems are continuously monitored and supported; any issue will be reported and fixed as soon as possible.
