Enterprise-grade privacy and security by design.
Trust is foundational at Auros. Privacy, security, and compliance are woven into everything we build – so customers, partners, and participants can trust us with their data.
How We Earn Your Trust
Security
We operate a mature, continuously tested security program that protects the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of customer and participant data. We are independently audited under SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 and a third-party provider performs an annual penetration test.
Privacy
We respect individual privacy and are transparent about how personal data is collected, used, and protected across our platform and research network. We are independently audited under ISO 27701.
AI Governance
AI features can access data only within your own workspace. Outputs are traceable and reference the underlying data source, allowing validation. Third-party AI providers we engage are contractually prohibited from training on or retaining customer data beyond immediate use.
Contractual Commitments
We clearly document how data is processed, stored, transferred, and safeguarded — including subprocessors and contractual commitments.

AI Use & Governance
Auros uses AI deliberately, responsibly, and transparently. Auros' AI and ML features are designed as decision-support tools that help customers work faster and surface relevant evidence; they do not make autonomous decisions or take actions on their own. You remain in control of outcomes at every stage.
Your data is not used to train AI
We do not use customer data to train generative AI models or large language models. Third-party AI providers we engage are contractually prohibited from training on or retaining customer data beyond immediate use.
Transparent use
Customers can opt out of generative AI features. Our platform indicates where generative AI is used and where it generates output.
Scoped & auditable
AI features can access data only within your own workspace. Outputs are traceable and reference the underlying data source, allowing validation.
