Privacy Policy & Data Protection
How DataSift safeguards your financial records and professional spreadsheet data. Last Updated: March 1, 2026
1. Professional Data Privacy Framework
At DataSift, we understand that financial and operational data is the lifeblood of your enterprise. Our platform is engineered with a **Privacy-by-Design** philosophy. This policy outlines our commitment to maintaining the confidentiality and integrity of the datasets you process within our precision workspace.
2. Local-First Processing Architecture
To ensure maximum security, DataSift utilizes a **Local-First** processing model. When you upload a CSV or Excel file for cleaning and calculation:
- In-Memory Computation: All spreadsheet records are processed locally within your browser's memory.
- No Data Transit: Raw row-level data is not transmitted to our servers during the "Filter & Clean" or "Dashboard" phases.
- Ephemeral Storage: Your data remains active only during your session unless you explicitly choose to save workspace metadata.
3. Workspace Metadata & Templates
We collect and store specific information to enable your automated workflows:
Account Identity
Corporate email and credentials managed securely via Firebase Auth.
Logic Pipelines
Saved calculation steps, column ordering, and filter presets to enable repeatable audits.
Dashboard Config
The layout and metric definitions for your executive reporting widgets.
4. Enterprise-Grade Security (GCP)
DataSift leverages **Google Cloud Platform (Firebase)** to host and secure your professional workspace. Our security stack includes:
- AES-256 Encryption: All stored metadata is encrypted at rest.
- TLS 1.3: All data in transit between your browser and Firebase is secured via high-grade TLS.
- Firestore Security Rules: Granular server-side permissions that ensure only you can access your saved templates.
5. Global Compliance (GDPR & CCPA)
DataSift is fully committed to global data rights standards. Users maintain full sovereignty over their data, including the right to:
