We take this very seriously and we take every normal step that an Australian practice may take.
- If you have a fast enough server and internet connection or are using a cloud based system we can work totally online so that no data actually leaves your office. You can select what files or folders your BOSS staff has access to on your server.
- We disable USB ports and we restrict use of the internet (e.g. webmail).
- BOSS has a Confidentiality Agreement signed by every employee.
- Your BOSS accountant is ethically bound by the professional code of conduct of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in India (this has as much meaning to Indian accountants as it does to their Australian counterparts).
- We are a Practice Entity Member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia and New Zealand (CAANZ) and thus follow their code of conduct.
- Your Bangalore staff are recruited, vetted and affiliated within the same stringent controls you would use taking on staff for your Australian office.
- You are dealing with staff in India but they are employed by BOSS Australia (your contract is with an Australian entity).
- The possibility of a breach of security is as unlikely in India as it is here.
- We have PI insurance for extra peace of mind.
- You can have the actual individuals (IT technician,reviewers, accountants, bookkeepers) sign a confidentiality agreement direct with your company if you like.
- We comply with the Australian privacy laws.
