Is Votel HIPAA compliant or SOC 2 certified, and where is my data hosted?
Votel offers a HIPAA add-on for businesses that handle protected health information, such as healthcare clients. The add-on is $497 a month, and along with buying it you sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with us. If a healthcare client asks you for a BAA, you need the HIPAA add-on and a signed BAA.
The add-on goes on your main account and covers all of your sub-accounts. Once it is on, it cannot be removed (GoHighLevel works the same way). The HIPAA add-on is shown with the plans under Settings, then Billing.
HIPAA compliance has many parts. Votel covers the part that relates to the data stored in the platform. Votel is not a HIPAA training company: training your team to be knowledgeable and compliant is a separate part that your business handles.
Votel does not have SOC 2 and is not currently pursuing it.
Votel runs on OVH bare metal servers, chosen for speed and low latency, which gives the fastest response on phone calls. For details on how we handle privacy, see the privacy policy on the Votel website.
