Security & Privacy

Comprehensive security measures and privacy controls to protect your data and memories

Enterprise-Grade Security

ODAM implements multiple layers of security to ensure your sensitive data and personal memories are protected at rest, in transit, and during processing. We follow industry best practices and compliance standards.

Core Security Features

End-to-End Encryption

All data is encrypted using AES-256 encryption both at rest and in transit. Your memories are protected with industry-standard cryptographic protocols.

TLS 1.3 for data in transit

API Key Management

Secure API key generation, rotation, and revocation with granular permissions and rate limiting to prevent unauthorized access.

Automatic key rotation

Identity Verification

Multi-factor authentication and identity verification to ensure only authorized users can access memory data.

OAuth 2.0 & SAML support

Data Isolation

Complete data isolation between users and organizations. Your memories are never shared or accessible to other users.

Zero data sharing

Privacy Controls

Data Visibility & Access

You have complete control over what data is stored, who can access it, and how it's used.

Memory Categories

  • • Personal Information
  • • Conversation History
  • • Preferences & Settings
  • • Interaction Metadata

Access Controls

  • • User-level permissions
  • • Application-level access
  • • Time-based access tokens
  • • IP-based restrictions

Privacy by Design

ODAM implements privacy by design principles, ensuring minimal data collection, purpose limitation, and user consent for all memory operations.

Data Retention & Deletion

Flexible data retention policies with automatic cleanup and user-initiated deletion options.

Automatic Expiration

Set custom retention periods for different types of memories

Right to Deletion

Complete data deletion within 30 days of request

Selective Memory Deletion

Delete specific memories or entire categories

Secure Integration Checklist

API Key Security

Store API keys in environment variables, never in code

HTTPS Only

Always use HTTPS for API calls to ensure data encryption

User Consent

Implement proper consent mechanisms for memory storage

Data Minimization

Only store necessary information, avoid sensitive data

Regular Audits

Monitor access logs and perform security reviews

Security Best Practices

Critical Security Guidelines

Never log sensitive data: Avoid logging personal information or memory content
Validate all inputs: Sanitize and validate all data before sending to ODAM
Implement rate limiting: Prevent abuse with proper rate limiting mechanisms
Monitor for anomalies: Set up alerts for unusual access patterns
