Our data principles
Bud is shaped by a culture of ethical use of data. We strive to raise the standard for both the Open Banking and Financial Services industries and have distilled our approach into a set of principles. They guide everything we do.
-
Security first
We put the security of data above all else and use advanced encryption techniques.
-
Built for privacy
We train machine learning models on anonymised data to protect people’s privacy.
-
User-centered
We only use data to benefit people and build tools to meet their needs.
-
Transparent and open
We make sure our clients understand how and why we use data because we believe in responsible innovation.
-
Accountable and robust
We’re accountable to clients and regulators (including the FCA and ICO) and we hold our team to the highest standards.
-
No compromises
We’d rather step away from an opportunity than compromise on these principles.
Thought leadership
We spend our time immersed in the industry, in our clients and their customers and in the data we use to power our decisions. Occasionally we write about the insight that gives us.
