Security & data protection

No third party can read along. Not even us.

In counseling, people share the most personal things they have. That's why security at Connecta isn't an add-on but the foundation: end-to-end encryption of every counseling dialogue, zero data leakage, independently audited.

End-to-end encryption

Encrypted on the device, readable only by those involved.

Messages are encrypted on the advice seeker's device and only become readable again on their conversation partners' devices. Nobody can read along in between, not even Connecta. Taken this far, that's far from standard in social counseling.

  • Covers messages, documents and voice messages

  • Also covers internal team chats

  • Key recovery is transparent instead of silent

Zero data leakage

All data stays in one closed system.

Connecta consistently follows the principle that no counseling data leaves the system. Hosting is in German data centers, and the counseling area contains no third-party tracking or analytics.

  • No sharing with third parties

  • No tracking in the counseling area

  • All subcontractors GDPR-compliant

AI without compromise

Modern technology without weakening encryption.

AI translation runs right on the device. No text goes to an external AI provider. That keeps end-to-end encryption fully intact even when advice seekers and counselors speak different languages.

Data protection isn't a box we tick.

We built Connecta from the ground up with end-to-end encryption and the zero-data-leakage principle. Not because it's required, but because people in counseling must be able to rely on it.
