Where our data lives

Global platform, consistent standards

Primary database and file storage run in the EU/UK region. Cloudflare edge terminates TLS globally for low-latency access in the markets below. Encryption, access control and RLS policies are identical in every market — they do not weaken outside the UK.

Collaboration is our anti-scam strategy

Owners, agents, developers and service partners work together on one verified network — not against each other in fragmented back channels. That's how we starve scams of the confusion they rely on, and how every listing ends up with a clear audit trail behind it.

Shared responsibility

We provide the platform controls above. Users are responsible for choosing strong passwords, enabling multi-factor authentication where offered, and keeping their account details up to date.
