Questions

Before you start

Is this an audit or a certification?

No — it's a self-assessment-based baseline. Evidence-based assessment begins at Pro; certification-readiness sits in Enterprise.

Who should complete it?

Someone with a broad view of how you handle customer and employee data — a founder, ops lead or compliance owner.

Can it be white-labelled for our firm?

Yes — it runs at scale across an SME portfolio under a CA-firm or advisory partner arrangement.
