SOC 1

We have completed the SOC (Service Organization Controls) Report, issued by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA).

The report demonstrates our commitment to internal controls over finance reporting.

Completing this standard required a rigorous and lengthy process, commitment from the entire organization, and a comprehensive approach across multiple teams and departments.
