Flatm8 is not just a website; it's a tool for change. We collaborate with trusted partners to improve housing standards.
- •Who we work with: Trade unions, civic technology organisations, and academic researchers.
- •Why: To support rights-based advocacy and evidence-based housing policy.
- •How: We primarily share anonymised or aggregated data. Personal data is only shared when strictly necessary and under strict legal agreements.
We never sell data for profit.
Internal Governance
We don't just talk about privacy; we build it into our operations.
- Data Protection Impact Assessments: We rigorously assess risks before launching new features or partnerships.
- Security First: We use industry-standard encryption and access controls.
- Retention: We don't hoard data. We have strict schedules for deleting data we no longer need.
- Oversight: Our Data Protection Lead ensures we stay true to our principles and the law.
