Our engineers need administrator access to run your system. So every sign-in by one of us, and every command run with administrator rights, is written down, sealed and stored outside the server. The server cannot delete it. For the first 35 days nobody can, including us. You can ask for it at any time.
Your system holds your money, your stock and your customers. The people who run it can open the server it lives on. Auditors, banks and boards ask the same thing: who from your supplier entered production, when, and what did they do? Most suppliers can only give their word. We give you the record.
This is how every server we have set up since November 2026 works. Nothing depends on a person remembering to do it.
Every 15 minutes, the server copies each new sign-in, each switch to administrator rights and each command run with those rights into a record for the month. Lines are only ever added.
Once a day, the server encrypts the month so far. Only one key can open it, and that key is not on the server.
The sealed month goes to separate storage. The server can add to that storage and can never delete from it. The storage itself refuses to delete any record for 35 days, whoever asks, including us.
A separate machine checks that each server stored its record today. If a server goes quiet for two days, or tries to hide a record, we get an alert.
We read the public documentation of the systems our clients compare us with, on 10 November 2026. Each row links to its source. If something has changed, write to us and we will correct the row.

The large platforms keep this for their top plans. We include it in every system we run.
The same rule as on our Trust page: we list the gaps too.
The service agreement says every access by our people is logged, and that you get the log on request within five working days.
