Data Security
Encryption at rest
All personal data, images, and platform data stored on AWS S3 and RDS are encrypted with AES-256. Encryption keys are managed via AWS KMS with regular rotation.
Encryption in transit
All API communications and web traffic are encrypted via TLS 1.3. Older protocol versions (TLS 1.0, 1.1) are not accepted. Certificate management via AWS ACM.
AWS eu-north-1 — Stockholm
All quiXzoom infrastructure runs in AWS eu-north-1 (Stockholm, Sweden). No data is processed or stored outside the European Union.
Network isolation
Production services run in isolated VPCs with strict security group rules. Database instances are not publicly accessible. Outbound access is controlled via NAT gateways.
Identity Verification
KYC — one-time verification
Before a Zoomer receives their first payout, they complete a one-time Know Your Customer identity check. This is required by payment regulation and takes 3–5 minutes. Only identity-verified contributors participate on the platform.
Verified contributors only
All active Zoomers have completed identity verification. Anonymous participation is not permitted. This prevents fraud, maintains data quality, and satisfies AML regulatory requirements.
AI Quality Review
Every submission reviewed
Every image and data submission is reviewed by Landvex AI before payout is approved. The review checks location accuracy, image specification compliance, technical quality, and instruction adherence.
No unreviewed data delivered
Enterprise clients receive only reviewed and approved submissions. Rejected submissions are not delivered and the Zoomer is not paid for them. This maintains the quality guarantee on all delivered intelligence.
Privacy by Design
Data minimisation
We collect only the data required for each specific purpose. Location is only collected during active missions. No background tracking. No data collected for secondary purposes without a distinct legal basis.
Right to erasure supported
Zoomers may request deletion of their account and associated personal data. Requests are processed within 30 days. Statutory retention obligations (e.g. accounting records) may prevent immediate deletion of specific records.
Responsible Disclosure
Report a vulnerability
If you discover a security vulnerability, please report it responsibly to security@quixzoom.com. We acknowledge reports within 48 hours and provide remediation updates. We do not pursue legal action against good-faith security researchers.
