Security & Trust

Last updated May 28, 2026

Stash is built for hosts, organizers, and businesses who trust us with the inventory of their properties. Here's exactly how we protect that data.

Encryption

  • In transit: every request to Stash is served over HTTPS (TLS 1.2+). Plain HTTP is redirected.
  • At rest: your database and uploaded photos are encrypted on disk using AES-256 by our infrastructure provider.
  • Passwords: never stored in plaintext. They're hashed with bcrypt inside our authentication provider — even we can't read them.

Access control

  • Row-level security (RLS): every table that holds your data has database-enforced policies. The query layer cannot return another user's items, photos, or properties — even if the application code has a bug.
  • Per-property sharing: co-hosts, cleaners, and staff only see the properties you explicitly invite them to.
  • Guest links: are scoped, revocable tokens. You can rotate or disable them at any time from the property's share menu.

Privacy & data ownership

  • Your data is yours. We do not sell it, rent it, or use it to train AI models.
  • We're aligned with GDPR and CCPA: you can export or permanently delete your account and all related data from your settings.
  • Read the full Privacy Policy for details on what we collect and why.

Payments

All billing runs through Paddle.com, our Merchant of Record. Card numbers never touch Stash servers — Paddle is PCI-DSS Level 1 certified.

Infrastructure

  • Hosting and database are operated by tier-1 cloud providers with SOC 2 Type II audited data centers.
  • Automated daily database backups with point-in-time recovery.
  • Application code is deployed via reviewed releases — no direct production access.

Uptime & status

We publish a live status page with real-time uptime and any active incidents: status.mystash.online.

Reporting a vulnerability

If you've found a security issue, please email support@mystash.online with details and steps to reproduce. We respond within two business days and credit responsible reporters once a fix ships.

What we don't (yet) have

We're transparent about our stage: Stash is not currently SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certified. If your organization needs a formal audit before adopting Stash, email support@mystash.online and we'll share our roadmap.
