Security & compliance

Built for regulated organisations.

Your data stays in the EU cloud in Frankfurt or in your own data centre. Every answer is evidenced and logged. Nothing goes out without your approval.

Deployment

You choose where c:node runs.

As your own tenant in the EU cloud in Frankfurt, entirely on your servers or with no internet connection at all. Agents, connectors and evidence stay the same.

Access

You approve what c:node may see.

Connectors work with the access you approve. API keys are bound to a profile and your tenant. Nothing reaches beyond your tenant.

AI safety

Only approved models – and every statement checked.

You decide which models see your data. Every statement is checked at its source. Anything that cannot be evidenced, c:node marks as open instead of asserting it.

Proof

Every answer lands in the audit trail.

Answer, sources, verification result and approval are logged, with a content hash. That way internal audit and regulators can verify them. Built for the logging obligations of the EU AI Act (Art. 12).

Human oversight

Nothing goes out without your approval.

Agents prepare – emails, official notices, CRM entries. Nothing is executed until you approve. That way, the decision stays with people.

FAQ

Security, briefly explained.

Anything else? Write to us.

Where is our data stored?

In your own tenant in the EU cloud in Frankfurt or entirely in your data centre – without internet if you wish. You decide before launch.

Is our content used to train AI models?

No. Your content is not used to train models.

Which AI models may see our data?

Only the ones you allow: models from EU providers, large models via API in the EU region or open models on your own servers.

How does c:node prevent made-up answers?

Every statement is checked against its source. Anything that cannot be evidenced is marked as open – c:node then says which information is missing.

Can an agent send emails or change data on its own?

No. Agents prepare drafts. Nothing goes out until an authorised person approves it.

What does the EU AI Act mean for using c:node?

c:node is built for the requirements of the EU AI Act: traceable answers, logging (Art. 12) and human oversight. We clarify the classification of your specific use case together with you.

Do we get a data processing agreement?

Yes. You'll find the DPA under Art. 28 GDPR in the legal section; separate agreements apply to on-prem deployments.
