Digicode Earns ISO 27701 Certification – Advancing Privacy and Trust

A Milestone Built on Partnership and Purpose

Some achievements change nothing, others quietly reset how you operate.

This one reshaped ours. Achieving ISO 27701 made us rethink daily habits, not just policies.

It builds on our long-standing ISO 27001 foundation and unites privacy and security into one continuous practice.

We also owe credit to our clients and partners – for the questions they ask, the standards they hold us to, and the trust they place in us. That mix of challenge and collaboration keeps us accountable and, frankly, better.

What ISO 27701 Actually Means

ISO 27701 expands the ISO 27001 security standard by adding a structured way to handle personally identifiable information (PII) – how it’s collected, processed, stored, and eventually removed.

It lines up with GDPR, CCPA, and other global rules, creating one consistent approach wherever data travels.

For Digicode, this isn’t new ground. It simply formalizes how we’ve been working for years: privacy built into design decisions, not drafted in legal text afterward.

For clients, it means the same thing – privacy controls living directly inside the software they use and the infrastructure that runs it.

How We Earned It

Certification meant letting independent auditors look under the hood.

They examined how we:

• classify, process, and retain information
• assess and mitigate privacy risks
• manage third-party and vendor data
• obtain consent and maintain transparency
• train teams and test awareness

It was about showing that our system works the same way on a busy Tuesday as it does in an audit. The result: our Privacy Information Management System proved stable, measurable, and continuously improving, exactly what we wanted confirmed.

Privacy in Practice

Across Digicode, privacy lives where the code lives.

• AI models rely on anonymized or pseudonymized data
• Cloud platforms use layered access and real-time monitoring
• Enterprise apps include consent and retention logic baked into everyday workflows

Those choices decide how our products behave in real use and they let clients move faster without losing control of what matters.

Why It Matters for Regulated Industries

If you work in FinTech, Healthcare, Education, Real Estate, or iGaming, you already know how unforgiving data mistakes can be.

ISO 27701 gives our partners a documented, globally recognized way to prove their systems are governed properly.

It trims review times, limits penalties, and, most importantly, builds trust with users and regulators alike.

In markets that change overnight, that kind of assurance isn’t nice to have, it’s essential.

Extending the Foundation of ISO 27001

ISO 27001 built the security backbone.

ISO 27701 adds the privacy layer, defining how that data is used, shared, and stored.

Together, they complete the picture: security keeps data safe, privacy keeps it ethical.

That dual structure gives clients confidence when working across multiple regions and regulatory systems.

A Culture That Keeps Evolving

Getting certified wasn’t a finish line,it was a reset point.

Our privacy team now runs rolling reviews, risk analyses, and training sessions so everyone: from developers to executives, understands how daily actions affect data protection.

Before any release goes live, it passes through a privacy check.

Looking Ahead: Privacy as a Real Advantage

At Digicode, privacy is the part of the product.

Clients come to us for smart, scalable software, and they stay because they know we handle their information with care that matches their own.

Founded in 2008 and headquartered in Dallas, Texas, Digicode brings together more than 400 engineers and product experts across AI, cloud, and enterprise technologies.

With ISO 27701 now certified, we’re helping more companies innovate boldly and do it the right way.

Final Word: Trust Is the True Outcome

We’ve never viewed privacy as paperwork. It’s a promise.

In a world run on data, people choose partners who treat that data with respect. ISO 27701 simply affirms what our clients already experience.
Our 98 percent client-retention rate across FinTech, Healthcare, Real Estate, Education, and iGaming isn’t coincidence. It’s trust, proven over time.

With ISO 27701 every solution stays secure, transparent, and aligned with the highest ethical standards.

Because true innovation doesn’t just build technology – it builds trust.
