BOLINA
Security & Trust

Built to be trusted with your fleet.

Your vessel data, financials, and owner reports are sensitive. Here is exactly how we protect them.

Hosting & infrastructure

The Bolina website and application are hosted on Vercel, which delivers the product over a global, automatically-scaling edge network with DDoS protection and managed TLS.

Application data is stored in a managed EU-region database with encrypted object storage for uploaded documents. Infrastructure is provisioned through trusted, SOC 2-compliant cloud providers.

Encryption

All traffic is encrypted in transit using TLS 1.2+. Data is encrypted at rest using AES-256, including database contents, backups, and uploaded files.

Data residency

Customer data is stored and processed within the European Economic Area. Where a sub-processor operates outside the EEA, transfers are covered by Standard Contractual Clauses or an adequacy decision.

Access controls & role-based permissions

Bolina supports role-based access control, so owners, managers, and crew each see only what their role permits. Internally, access to production systems is restricted to authorised personnel, granted on a least-privilege basis, and protected with mandatory multi-factor authentication.

Backups & disaster recovery

Databases are backed up automatically with point-in-time recovery. Backups are encrypted and stored in the EEA. We maintain a disaster-recovery plan with defined recovery objectives and test restores periodically.

GDPR posture

Bolina Marine acts as a data controller for account data and a data processor for the operational data you enter. We honour data subject rights (access, rectification, erasure, portability), keep a record of processing activities, and sign Data Processing Agreements with customers on request.

Read our Privacy Policy for the full detail.

Compliance roadmap

We are building toward formal certification as we scale:

  • SOC 2 Type II — target audit window 2026
  • ISO/IEC 27001 — certification targeted for 2027

Dates are targets and may change. For current documentation or a security questionnaire, contact contact@bolinamarine.com.
