Security & Data Protection

Your data deserves the same rigour as your compliance.

Statura Care handles personal information, health data, incident reports, and whistleblower disclosures. We take that responsibility seriously. Security isn't a feature — it's the foundation the platform is built on.

Security Architecture

Defence in depth, by design.

Security is enforced at every layer — infrastructure, database, application, and user interface. No single point of failure.

Australian Infrastructure

All data is hosted in Sydney, Australia on Australian infrastructure. Your compliance data never leaves the country. Edge network delivery ensures fast access for Australian users.

Encryption Everywhere

All data is encrypted in transit using TLS 1.3 and encrypted at rest. Database connections are secured and credentials are managed through environment-level secrets — never hardcoded.

Row-Level Security

Every database table is protected by row-level security (RLS) policies. Each organisation can only access their own data — enforced at the database layer, not the application layer. Even if application logic fails, the database won't serve another organisation's data.

Role-Based Access Control

Seven distinct roles — from viewer to owner — control what each user can see and do. Granular permissions ensure compliance officers, managers, and self-service users each see exactly what they need, and nothing more.

Immutable Audit Trail

Every action is logged: creates, updates, deletes, logins, exports, approvals, and escalations. The audit trail captures who did what, when, from where, and the full diff of changes. Logs are append-only and cannot be modified or deleted.

Passwordless Authentication

Statura Care uses magic link authentication — no passwords to compromise, phish, or reuse. Users receive a secure one-time link via email to sign in. Self-service portals for responsible persons use the same secure mechanism.

Privacy & Data Handling

Privacy by design, not by afterthought.

When your platform handles PII, health data, and protected disclosures, privacy can't be a checkbox. It has to be architectural.

Whistleblower Confidentiality

Discloser identity in the Whistleblower module is restricted to designated eligible recipients only. All other users see the disclosure content but never who made it. Every access to confidential identity fields is logged in the audit trail — demonstrating controlled access.

Data Isolation

Multi-tenancy is implemented with organisation-scoped data isolation. Each provider's data is logically separated at the database level. Cross-organisation queries are structurally impossible through the application.

Privacy Act 1988 Alignment

Statura Care is designed to support your obligations under the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). The platform handles personal information, sensitive information, and health information with appropriate access controls and audit trails.

Document Security

Documents are stored in organisation-scoped paths with access controlled by the same RLS policies that protect all other data. Document uploads are associated with specific entities and modules, preventing unauthorised access.

Operational Security

The system that watches the system.

Automated monitoring, structured escalation, and reliable notification delivery ensure compliance-critical events are never missed — even when people are busy.

Automated Compliance Monitoring

Cron jobs run on defined schedules to check screening expiry, assessment due dates, notification deadlines, and alert escalation — ensuring nothing slips through the cracks.

Structured Alert Escalation

Compliance alerts progress through severity levels (info → warning → critical → overdue) based on deadline proximity. Critical alerts are impossible to ignore.

Notification Queue

Email and in-app notifications are queued and delivered reliably. Notification delivery is tracked, ensuring compliance-critical communications reach the right people.

Accessibility

WCAG 2.1 AA compliant. All interactive elements have visible focus states. Colour is never the sole indicator of information. Reduced motion is respected for users who prefer it.

Data We Protect

Personal information of care recipients and staff. Health records and clinical data. Serious incident reports including allegations of neglect, abuse, and unexpected deaths. Whistleblower disclosures with protected identities. Financial records including refundable accommodation deposits. Worker screening and police check results.

Every piece of data is subject to the same security controls: encryption, access control, audit logging, and organisation-scoped isolation.
