Your data is safe with Trippi

We handle mileage data that feeds into real HMRC claims. That's why security, privacy, and transparency aren't afterthoughts — they're foundational to everything we build.

Security

Built to protect your data at every layer

From the infrastructure up, Trippi is designed with security as a first-class requirement — not bolted on afterwards.

Encryption at rest

All stored data is encrypted using AES-256 encryption. Database backups are encrypted with the same standard.

Encryption in transit

TLS 1.3 encrypts every connection between your browser and our servers. HSTS headers prevent downgrade attacks.

OAuth 2.0 only

We never see or store your Google or Microsoft passwords. Access is granted via scoped OAuth tokens that you can revoke at any time.

Minimal data access

We request only the calendar scopes needed to read event locations and times. We never access email, contacts, or files.

Infrastructure security

Hosted on SOC 2 Type II certified infrastructure with automated vulnerability scanning, WAF protection, and DDoS mitigation.

Regular security reviews

We conduct regular penetration testing and code reviews. Dependency vulnerabilities are patched within 48 hours of disclosure.

Compliance

Standards we meet and maintain

Trippi is designed for users who claim real money from HMRC. We take the regulatory and compliance landscape seriously.

  • UK GDPR & Data Protection Act 2018

    Registered with the ICO. Lawful basis documented for all processing activities. Data protection impact assessments completed for high-risk processing.

  • Google API Services User Data Policy

    Trippi's use of Google Calendar data complies with Google's Limited Use requirements. We access only what's needed and never share it with third parties for advertising.

  • Microsoft App Compliance Programme

    Publisher-verified for Microsoft 365 integration. Trippi has completed Microsoft's publisher attestation for Outlook Calendar access.

  • HMRC-compliant calculations

    Mileage rates align with HMRC approved rates (45p first 10,000 miles, 25p thereafter). Advisory fuel rates for company cars are applied where required. Reports are formatted for Self Assessment submission.

  • Data retention policy

    Trip data is retained for the current tax year plus six years to align with HMRC record-keeping requirements. You can delete your data at any time.

Data practices

What we access, and what we don't

Transparency is the backbone of trust. Here's exactly what Trippi does — and doesn't do — with your data.

What we access

  • Calendar event titles, locations, and times (to calculate mileage)
  • Your base postcode (to determine journey start point)
  • Your name and email (for account and billing)
  • Payment information via Stripe (we never see full card numbers)

What we never do

  • Sell, share, or trade your personal data with third parties
  • Access your emails, contacts, files, or drive
  • Use your data for advertising or profiling
  • Store your Google or Microsoft passwords
  • Track your real-time location or GPS

Subprocessors

Third parties that process data on our behalf

We carefully vet every subprocessor and hold them to the same data protection standards we follow ourselves. All subprocessors have appropriate data processing agreements in place.

For US-based subprocessors, data transfers are protected under UK International Data Transfer Agreements (IDTAs), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, and/or EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) as applicable. Stripe's contracting entity for UK users is Stripe Payments Europe, Limited (Ireland); some processing may occur in the US under the UK-US Data Privacy Framework. We will notify users by email at least 30 days before adding a new subprocessor.
