    GDPR & HIPAA Compliant Software Development

    Compliance Built Into How We Work — Not Retrofitted After

    Compliance is not a checkbox — it's built into how we work. Ortem Technologies maintains GDPR and HIPAA compliance frameworks across all client engagements, with the legal protections and technical controls to match.

    Our Compliance Frameworks

    HIPAA Compliance

    We sign Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) with all healthcare clients, implement PHI encryption at rest and in transit, enforce strict access controls, and maintain audit logs that meet HIPAA Security Rule requirements.

    • Business Associate Agreements (BAA)
    • PHI encryption at rest and in transit
    • Role-based access controls (RBAC)
    • Audit log retention & monitoring

    GDPR Compliance

    All client data processed by Ortem Technologies is handled in accordance with GDPR. We implement data minimisation, purpose limitation, and provide full data processing agreements (DPAs) for EU-based clients.

    • Data Processing Agreements (DPA)
    • Data minimisation and purpose limitation
    • Right to erasure implementation
    • EU data residency options available

    Data Security Controls

    Our engineering practices include secure SDLC, OWASP-aligned code reviews, penetration testing, and infrastructure hardening. We follow least-privilege access principles across all environments.

    • Secure SDLC & OWASP code reviews
    • Penetration testing for all web/mobile apps
    • Least-privilege IAM across cloud environments
    • Encrypted backups with tested restore procedures

    Contractual & Legal Protections

    Every engagement includes a comprehensive NDA, IP assignment clause, and data processing terms. Our legal framework is reviewed annually to keep pace with evolving privacy regulations.

    • Mutual NDA from day one
    • Full IP assignment to client
    • Data processing terms in every contract
    • Annual legal framework review
