Scalexa On-Demand — Security & data note
1. Access: least privilege, always.
- We ask for the minimum access each request needs, and say what it is before we start. Typical access: a GitHub deploy key or repo collaborator on one repo, a scoped IAM role (assumed by us, with an external ID), or a read-only database user.
- We never ask for root, owner or admin credentials, and never for your personal logins.
- Secrets travel only through your own secrets manager or a one-time secret link. They never go on the request board, in email, or in chat.
- Access is logged on your board under the request. We remove it, and ask you to rotate anything shared, within 1 business day of cancelling.
2. Who touches your code.
- Scalexa engineers and vetted contractors. Before anyone works on your requests, they have signed confidentiality, IP-assignment and data-processing terms with Fluxscale Limited.
- Only UK- or EEA-based engineers handle your data, unless an approved UK international data transfer agreement (IDTA) is in place for that person.
- Every deliverable is reviewed and signed off by a Scalexa engineer before it reaches you, including anything drafted with AI.
- We'll sign a mutual NDA before you share anything. Just ask.
3. AI use.
- We use AI coding and analysis tools on business or enterprise plans that don't train on customer data ✔.
- We don't put secrets, credentials or personal data into prompts.
- All AI-assisted code is read, tested and reviewed by a person before delivery. You receive it as a normal pull request or document you can inspect.
- If you'd rather we don't use AI on a particular request, mark it "No AI" and we'll do it by hand. It may take longer.
4. Your data.
- We work in your environment or on a branch wherever possible, and don't copy production data to our machines.
- If a sample is needed, we ask for anonymised or synthetic data. Anything we do hold is deleted when the request closes.
5. IP.
- Everything we deliver is yours once delivered. We keep only generic know-how.
6. What this service is not.
- It isn't a managed security service, an on-call or incident response service, or a formal penetration test or certification audit. For those, ask about a retainer or a fixed-scope engagement.
7. Hours and contact.
- We work UK business days, Mon–Fri 09:00–17:30 UK.
- Security questions: hello-ai@scalexa.com.
Data protection paperwork: where we process personal data for you, our data processing addendum applies (available on request). Our sub-processors, with where they are and how transfers are covered, are available on request.
