The policy governs the entire employee lifecycle, from secure onboarding to offboarding, to protect company and customer data.

Our Code of Conduct establishes the highest standards of ethical business conduct, requiring all employees and contractors to act with integrity and comply with the law.

How does Langfuse manage physical security?

Our Berlin and San Francisco office are to be treated as a shared space with controlled after-hours access, treated similarly to a co-working environment. Consequently, all personnel are required to follow a strict clean desk policy, utilizing lockable storage and shredders to ensure no sensitive information is left unattended. As we do not operate our own data center, all physical security for our data centers is managed by our third-party cloud providers.

Who owns security inside Langfuse?
