Security at Clubernance

Clubernance is built for trust. As a governance platform handling sensitive club data — director details, financial records, board decisions — security is foundational to everything we build.

Standards & Compliance

  • Aligned with ACSC Essential Eight security controls where applicable

Data Protection

  • All club data stored in Australian data centres (Sydney region)
  • All data encrypted in transit and at rest
  • Each club's data is fully isolated — one club can never access another club's data
