The short answer is that it will be much more secure in the cloud than almost anywhere else. Robust security protocols alongside data being segmented and backed up means that there is no single point of failure that would cause a data breach.

Because we have developed a number of in-house tools to speed up the development process, we retain the ownership of the underlying code. However, we give you an unlimited licence to use, distribute and sell the solution that comes out of it.
Think of it like building a car: you wouldn't expect us to reinvent some parts, like the wheel (our pre-developed code), but you have the right to sell the cars that come out of it (your bespoke solution.)
