Trust Center

A published page that answers the security questions buyers ask.

Last updated September 20, 2026

What it means

A Trust Center is a public page where you put the answers a customer or a platform would otherwise email you for: where data is stored, who can reach it, how you handle a report, what your uptime story is, which third parties are involved.

For a small product it is not paperwork for its own sake. It is the page that stops a serious buyer stalling, and it is what a reviewer looks for before they take you seriously.

A check looks for the usual addresses and reports whether anything is published there. It cannot judge whether the content is true, only whether it exists. That is honest and it is still useful, because the most common answer is nothing at all.

Incidents where it mattered

No incident in the library maps to this one yet.

ShipReady is not a penetration test or a security certification. No automated check can prove an application is secure.
