Kartel AI — Data Security

Your Data, Fortified.

A complete security framework showing how client data moves through our AI pipeline — from ingest to delivery — with enterprise-grade protection at every phase.

The Pipeline

Six Phases. Complete Control.

Every piece of client data follows a strict, auditable path through our infrastructure.

Phase 01
Client Ingest

Brand assets and briefs uploaded via encrypted TLS 1.3 connection directly to isolated client storage. No third-party routing.

Phase 02
Model Training

Custom LoRA models trained in air-gapped environment using client assets. Raw training data destroyed per NIST 800-88 after training completes.

Phase 03
Generation

AI generation runs entirely within client-isolated infrastructure. Client data never passes through third-party generation APIs.

Phase 04
QA & Review

Outputs reviewed via CIP dashboard. All review sessions encrypted, access logged, and tied to authenticated client accounts.

Phase 05
Asset Delivery

Final assets delivered through encrypted channels. All deliverables are client-owned IP — portable and transferable at any time.

Phase 06
Performance Loop

Anonymized performance signals feed back into the model. No PII or raw creative assets included in feedback data.

Integration

We Plug Into Your Stack.

Kartel connects to whatever performance data infrastructure you already use. You don't need to change vendors, adopt new tools, or restructure reporting. We read the signals you already have.

01
Creative Analytics Platforms

Performance intelligence platforms that score creative by KPI, audience, and channel. Their data tells the engine what visual approaches drive results for your brand specifically.

02
Media Measurement & BI

Your internal business intelligence, media mix models, and attribution tools. Conversion data, engagement metrics, and audience insights feed generation parameters.

03
Platform Analytics

Direct platform data from Meta, Google, TikTok, Amazon, and CTV — native performance signals that tell the engine what's working at the channel level.

Open Architecture

We don't require you to use a specific analytics vendor. If you have creative performance data — from any provider, in any format — we can connect it to the engine. The more data the system has, the smarter it gets. Your data. Your vendors. Our engine.

Security Controls

Protection at Every Phase

Systems, vendors, compliance status, and protections at each stage.

01
Data Encryption
At Rest
AES-256 encryption on all client data and model weights
In Transit
TLS 1.3 for all data in motion, API calls, and dashboard sessions
Key Management
Per-client encryption keys. Client-controlled key rotation available.
02
Data Isolation
Storage
Separate storage buckets per client. Zero data commingling.
Model Training
Air-gapped training environments. LoRA weights are client-specific.
API Security
Client data never routed through third-party AI APIs during generation.
03
Access Control
Authentication
SSO, MFA, and role-based access control on all client accounts
Audit Logging
All access events logged, timestamped, and available for client review
Vendor Access
Zero standing access. Just-in-time provisioning with full audit trail.
04
Compliance & Certification
Kartel
SOC 2 Type II in progress. Available on request.
Vendors
All infrastructure vendors maintain SOC 2 Type II certification
Data Privacy
CCPA and GDPR compliant. NIST 800-88 data destruction.
05
IP Ownership
Deliverables
100% client-owned. Full rights to use, modify, and distribute.
Custom Models
LoRA models are client IP. Portable and transferable at any time.
Training Data
Raw assets returned or destroyed. Never used for Kartel model training.
06
Incident Response
Response SLA
< 1 hour detection-to-notification for critical incidents
Notification
Immediate client notification of any breach or anomaly affecting their data
Recovery
Documented RTO/RPO targets. Regular disaster recovery testing.
Ownership

You Own Everything That Matters.

The engine, the models, the outputs, and the compounding intelligence layer — all client property. This is infrastructure you own, not a service you rent.

Custom Engine

LoRA models trained exclusively on your brand data. Your visual language, encoded into an AI system that only produces for you. Portable and transferable.

Intelligence Layer

Performance data history that accumulates over time. Each campaign makes the next one smarter. A competitor starting from scratch would need years to replicate what you build in months.

All Creative Output

100% client-owned IP. Every asset, every variant, every format. Full metadata audit trail. No shared training, no model contamination, no licensing strings.

Compounding Advantage

The longer you use the system, the more valuable it becomes. Custom training data + performance data history = a creative asset that appreciates, not depreciates.

Certifications

Enterprise-grade by default.

Every vendor in our stack maintains the certifications your security team requires.

SOC 2 Type II

All infrastructure vendors maintain SOC 2 Type II. Kartel SOC 2 in progress — available on request.

CCPA & GDPR

Fully compliant with California Consumer Privacy Act and General Data Protection Regulation.

NIST 800-88

Raw training data destroyed per NIST 800-88 guidelines. Certificates of destruction available.

AES-256 Encryption

Military-grade encryption at rest for all client data, model weights, and deliverables.

TLS 1.3

All data in transit protected by TLS 1.3 — the latest and most secure transport protocol.

Air-Gapped Training

Isolated training environments available for clients with highly sensitive brand materials.

Enterprise-grade security. Zero compromises.
