Security. What we do with client data.

Immigration files hold some of the most sensitive data a person has. This is how we look after it, and how to tell us if we've got something wrong.

What Bainary does, and doesn't

  • Fills the GOV.UK form and stops at Check your answers. It never signs the declaration, pays a fee or submits.
  • Every extracted fact links to the document and page it came from, so a solicitor can check it in seconds.
  • Gaps and conflicts come back to the solicitor as questions. Nothing is guessed.
  • Gives no legal or immigration advice. The firm stays the regulated adviser.

Client data

  • Stored in London, encrypted in transit and at rest.
  • Processed only by the sub-processors named in our data processing agreement, each under a data protection agreement. We email firms before any change.
  • Uploaded documents are deleted when filing completes. A firm can delete any matter, and everything in it, at any time.
  • We don't use client data to train AI models.
  • Each filing run is isolated from other matters and can reach only the services it needs.

Contracts and certification

  • Our data processing agreement (UK GDPR Article 28) is public. A fuller security summary for due diligence is available on request: security@bainary.ai.
  • We don't hold Cyber Essentials or ISO 27001 yet. Cyber Essentials is next.

If something goes wrong

  • We tell affected firms within 48 hours of becoming aware of a personal data breach, and help them meet their own duty to the ICO.
  • We publish a post-mortem for any incident that affects client data.

Reporting a vulnerability

  • Email security@bainary.ai with the steps to reproduce. We reply within three working days and keep you updated until it’s fixed.
  • Act in good faith: don't access or change client data beyond what you need to show the issue, don't degrade the service, and don't use social engineering. If you do that, we won't pursue you.
  • We don't run a paid bug bounty, but we'll credit you if you'd like.
