Where is my data housed? How secure is Berry?

Arrow

Our data is housed in the AWS infrastructure hosted in the eu-central-1 region (Frankfurt). The eu-central-1 region also meets the data requirements of the European Union, which means our data is subject to EU data protection laws. AWS provides a variety of security features and tools to help us protect our application and data, including identity and access management (IAM), network security, encryption, and compliance certifications. Network security is managed through the use of Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs), which enables us to isolate our resources and control traffic between them. We regularly review and update our security policies and procedures to ensure that they are up-to-date and effective. We also regularly conduct security audits and penetration testing to identify and address any potential vulnerabilities in our system
