Common Questions

Do I have to share our trade secrets?

No. You only publish your high-level principles, not your proprietary data or internal playbooks. It's about declaring your standards, not giving away your competitive edge.

Can I update my policy later?

Yes. Standards evolve. You can publish a new version of your policy at any time, and your domain's record will always point to the most current version while preserving your history.

How long does it take to set up?

You can create a baseline policy in about 5 minutes using our templates. From there, you can customize it as deeply as you need to reflect your specific practices.
