Security and data handling
The demonstration on this website does not connect to a client system or send what you type to an AI model. For paid work, we agree the people, systems, information and access needed in writing. We test the result with you and remove access when it is no longer required.

At a glance
The website demonstration
The demonstration does not upload, store or send what you enter. It has no connection to an AI model, client account or software tool. The security arrangements for real work are stated in your written proposal and delivery plan.
Access is limited to the agreed purpose and systems.
The proposal says who leads the work, who approves it and who handles problems.
Live work uses accounts that your organisation has authorised where appropriate.
We record removed access, known limits and the final handover.
To report a website security concern, email hello@alternatemachines.co.uk. Do not include passwords, login codes or real customer information in the first message.
Security steps we use for paid work
You can inspect this working standard. It does not mean Alternate Machines holds Cyber Essentials or ISO 27001 certification, or has completed an independent security audit or penetration test (a controlled attempt to find security weaknesses).
Before you accept the proposal
A written list of the business process, types of information and systems included.
This does not mean every project or type of information is suitable.
Before anyone receives access
A written list of each person, their responsibility, their permitted access and your approval.
Accepting a general proposal does not give us access by itself.
While we build and test
We record the purpose, account, access level, person who approved it and end date.
This is our current working process, not an independent security certificate or audit.
Before the solution goes live
Written checks, your approval decision, known limits and what to do if something fails.
Passing the agreed checks cannot guarantee the service will never be interrupted.
When the project ends or is handed over
An operating guide, person responsible, list of open issues and a record of access removed and information deleted.
How long information is kept and when it is deleted follow the signed project terms.
Before a specialist joins the project
Their name or role, purpose, confidentiality duty, permitted access and any required supplier approval.
We do not present a partner as an employee or assume they are approved before you agree.
See the sample records for access, responsibilities, testing, handover and project close before you buy.
