Data Security & Privacy Compliance

At VELOFINE, we understand that handling traffic violations and financial data requires the highest level of integrity. Our platform is built with a "Privacy by Design" approach, ensuring the seamless protection of government assets and citizen privacy.

1. Regulatory Excellence

We are fully committed to the strictest international data protection standards:

• Swiss nFADP: Fully compliant with the new Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection, ensuring data sovereignty for Swiss residents and authorities.

• GDPR Compliant: Our operations meet all EU General Data Protection Regulation requirements for cross-border data handling.

• PCI-DSS Level 1: All financial transactions are processed via gateways meeting the highest global security standards for payment data.

2. Architecture & Military-Grade Encryption

• Encrypted Data Lifecycle: Data in transit is secured via TLS 1.3, while data at rest is protected using AES-256 encryption.

• Secure API Handshake: Our integration between authorities and rental fleets uses encrypted, tokenized API calls, ensuring sensitive data is never exposed.

• Zero-Knowledge Principles: We minimize data retention. Once a fine is settled, sensitive identifiers are anonymized or purged according to strict regulatory requirements.

3. Infrastructure & Resilience

• Local Data Sovereignty: To comply with Swiss requirements, we offer dedicated hosting on Swiss-based cloud servers (Azure Switzerland / AWS Zurich).

• Continuous Monitoring: Systems undergo regular automated vulnerability scans and third-party penetration testing to preemptively mitigate risks.

• Granular Access Control: Implementation of Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to ensure only authorized personnel have system access.

4. Renter & Driver Privacy Protection

We prioritize the individual’s privacy through Data Minimization:

• Minimal Exposure: We only access the specific data points required to facilitate the payment notification.

• Secure Delivery: All communications are delivered via encrypted, secure channels directly to the driver’s device.

• Automated Decoupling: Once a settlement is confirmed, the link between the rental contract and the violation is immediately decoupled in our active database to prevent profiling.

5. Commitment to Transparency

VELOFINE acts as a transparent Data Processor. We provide our partners with comprehensive Data Processing Agreements (DPA) and maintain detailed audit trails for all automated transactions, ensuring full accountability at every step.
