Is my financial data secure?

Your data is stored with AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 encryption in transit. Row-level security ensures no other user can ever access your data. We never sell or share your information.

How is the valuation calculated?

ILLUM Pulse uses the same framework as a formal M&A advisory process — a multiple matrix based on your business model and sector, adjusted for your subsector characteristics, and benchmarked against 440+ comparable TMT transactions.

How long does it take?

The onboarding form takes approximately 5 minutes. Your Pulse Score and dashboard are generated instantly after you submit.

Security Architecture

Five layers of protection for your most sensitive data

Every layer of ILLUM Pulse is designed around the assumption that your business financials are your most sensitive asset.

Encryption in transit

Your data is encrypted every step of the way

All data transmitted between your browser and ILLUM Pulse is encrypted using TLS 1.3 — the same standard used by major banks and financial institutions. No data travels unencrypted at any point. Your valuation figures, revenue data, and margin information are protected from the moment you type them.

Encryption at rest

Your stored data is encrypted and non-accessible

All data stored in the ILLUM Pulse database is encrypted at rest using AES-256 — military-grade encryption. Your financial data is stored on AWS infrastructure via Supabase, one of the most secure database platforms available. Even in the unlikely event of a server breach, your data remains unreadable.

Row-level security

Your data is yours alone — no other user can see it

ILLUM Pulse enforces row-level security on every database table. This means it is technically impossible for one founder's data to be accessed by another user — even by accident. Your revenue figures, valuation range, and M&A readiness score are visible only to you and only when you are authenticated. This is not a policy — it is enforced at the database level.

Data privacy

No one at ILLUM reads your data without your permission

Your financial data is used solely to generate your Pulse Score, valuation range, and M&A readiness report. We do not sell your data. We do not share your identifiable data with any third party. Anonymised and aggregated benchmark data — with no identifying information — may be used to improve sector benchmarks. You may request deletion of all your data at any time by emailing info@illumpartners.com.

Zero data sales · Deletion on request within 30 days

Regulatory compliance

GDPR and CCPA compliant by design

ILLUM Pulse is built to comply with GDPR and CCPA. You have the right to access, correct, and delete your personal data at any time. We process data only on lawful bases — contract performance and legitimate interest. Our infrastructure is based in the United States under Virginia law jurisdiction.
