Forward 2026: What Flip's Conference Revealed About the Future of Frontline Work
Learn moreFrontline rollouts stall on two questions: is it secure, and can employees trust it on their own phones? Flip answers both out of the box: EU-hosted and ISO 27001-certified for IT, built with works councils and frontline employees for everyone else. All of the upside of BYOD, none of the downside.

Privacy and data protection
How we process your data is governed by a Data Processing Agreement – we’ll happily provide you with our template to look over. In accordance with GDPR, we comply with all requests for correction or deletion of data, or for a copy of the data we process. And to maximise your protection, we have DPAs of our own in place with all Flip data processors.
We ensure the secure processing of your data through rigorous technical and organisational measures, as outlined in the GDPR. These include (but aren't limited to) Mandatory employee security training, regular third-party audits, two-factor authentication, firewalls, virus protection, and disk encryption. We also regularly review and optimise these measures to ensure we're ahead of the latest security developments.
In a world where your data is constantly collected, connected, and sold, it's nice to know that Flip is a safe space. Flip was designed around the principle of data minimisation: collect what's necessary and nothing more. The only personal data needed to get set up is a first and last name, a user ID (e.g. email address), and a specified role (admin or user). Other information, such as a password reset email address, job title, region, or phone number, is completely optional.
Certification and hosting
Flip processes and stores your data in an ISO 270001-certified data centre in Germany that fulfils the requirements of the Cloud Computing Compliance Controls Catalog (C5) standard. By hosting data in the Azure cloud in Germany (Frankfurt and Berlin), we ensure that it stays within the European Union – protecting data sovereignty and ensuring compliance with regional regulations.
Data transmitted between end devices and the data centre is encrypted according to the current state-of-the-art technology: TLS 1.3, RSA 2048 Bits/SHA256 with RSA, HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS). If that's too technical, we regularly have the security of the employee app checked by independent third parties.
Flip uses OIDC (OpenID Connect) and OAuth protocols to verify authorisation and authentication. The JSON Web Token (JWT) signature is matched by the system with the user's public key in the API gateway for each individual HTTP access.
'The app allows us to communicate directly, securely, and easily with our colleagues. And all this with our private smartphones.'
Flip meets the most rigorous enterprise requirements right out of the box. Our platform is hosted on EU servers with ISO 27001 certification, messages are stored locally, and we're regularly audited by independent third parties. You don't even have to remember what GDPR stands for (yes, we're compliant with that too).
Equipping everyone with a company phone is difficult with large workforces. And, though most employees carry a personal phone, they're often reluctant to let employers in. Enter Mobile App Management. Employers get high adoption without losing control. Employees get convenience without the fear of being 'spied on.' Everyone wins.
Works councils needn't slow your project – they can help accelerate it. Flip was developed in partnership with frontline employees and workers' groups to come pre-fitted with the protections they care about. The app can't access personal smartphone data, collects minimal employee data, and can be muted outside of working hours.
