Security and regulatory accountability at Asaptic are enforced at the protocol and pipeline layer — not left to ad-hoc prompt instructions.
01 // ZERO-PII LEAK GATE
Deterministic Zero-PII Redaction & Outbound Firewall
Asaptic enforces a multi-stage deterministic scrubbing gate across all ingestion and publication pipelines. Personal names, national identity numbers, corporate registration numbers, room/flat street coordinates, bank account details, and counterparty-confidential pricing are stripped prior to AI context assembly and blocked from public feeds (/tender/rows.json, /mcp, and static HTML surfaces).
- Pre-ingestion regex + AST structural sanitizers strip personal identifiers and street-level coordinates before tokenization
- Outbound publication firewall blocks any artifact containing unredacted counterparty PII or confidential commercial terms
- Automated CI verification scans 100% of rendered routes for zero PII and zero sensitive entity leakage prior to deployment
02 // TENANT DATA ISOLATION
Cryptographic & Logical Tenant Workspace Isolation
Buyer RFQs, government tender bid strategies, and factory qualification dossiers execute inside logically isolated tenant namespaces. Asaptic never pools proprietary buyer specifications or supplier cost structures across competing engagements, and never trains foundation models on tenant commercial data.
- Strict per-engagement namespace partitioning across vector indices, document object stores, and execution state
- Zero cross-tenant context window reuse; ephemeral execution sandboxes purged upon task completion
- Contractual and technical prohibition on using customer RFQ or supplier pricing data for external model training
03 // EU AI ACT ART. 50 TRANSPARENCY
EU AI Act Article 50 Transparency & Human-in-the-Loop Governance
In full alignment with EU AI Act Article 50 transparency obligations and international AI governance standards, Asaptic clearly identifies AI-generated compliance mappings, tender summaries, and draft technical proposals. While our pipeline operates approximately 99% autonomously for research and document assembly, every legally or financially binding commitment requires explicit human operator authorization.
- Machine-readable provenance headers and explicit human-readable disclosures on all AI-assisted compliance artifacts
- Mandatory human-in-the-loop review and sign-off before dispatching Proforma Invoices, purchase orders, or signed contracts
- Deterministic citation linking every AI compliance claim to specific GB, IEC, ISO, EN, UL, or FDA standard clauses
04 // GDPR & HK PDPO COMPLIANCE
GDPR & Hong Kong PDPO (Cap. 486) Regulatory Alignment
Asaptic operates exclusively in B2B institutional supply chains from Hong Kong SAR, adhering to the Hong Kong Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (Cap. 486, PDPO) and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for European counterparties. We apply strict data minimization, collecting only business-contact metadata necessary to execute commercial procurement.
- Lawful processing grounded in B2B contractual necessity and legitimate institutional procurement interest
- Data minimization and purpose limitation: zero consumer profiling, zero behavioral advertising trackers, zero third-party data brokering
- Prompt fulfillment of data access, rectification, and erasure requests via [email protected] and [email protected]
05 // CRYPTOGRAPHIC AUDIT TRAILS
SHA-256 Execution Receipts & Falsifiable Proof Surfaces
Every automated tender ingestion cycle, cross-standard equivalence matrix, and platform build emits a cryptographic SHA-256 digest into our append-only audit log. Institutional buyers, auditors, and autonomous agents can independently verify platform state against our public proof manifest.
- Publicly verifiable proof manifest published at /.well-known/asaptic-proof.json with live telemetry at /status/
- Immutable SHA-256 content hashes linking each compliance determination to its underlying regulatory source clause
- Tamper-evident execution logs retained for institutional audit and government tender post-award verification
06 // RESPONSIBLE DISCLOSURE (RFC 9116)
Vulnerability Reporting & Safe-Harbour Commitment
Asaptic welcomes good-faith security research across our web properties, public JSON feeds, and Model Context Protocol (/mcp) endpoints. We provide a dedicated disclosure channel at [email protected] and extend a formal safe-harbour commitment to researchers who follow this policy.
- Primary security disclosure inbox: [email protected] (PGP & RFC 9116 metadata at /.well-known/security.txt)
- Acknowledgement within 24 hours; triage and remediation timeline within 72 hours for verified findings
- Full legal safe harbour for good-faith researchers who avoid privacy violations, data destruction, and service disruption
