Security & data

How your bakery data is protected, layer by layer.

Plain language, no badges we haven’t earned. Six layers stand between your sales, customers and recipes and the things that go wrong.

  1. Encrypted connection
  2. Hosted for you
  3. Daily backups
  4. Roles and permissions
  5. No card numbers stored
  6. Your export, any time

In detail

What does each layer actually do?

Encrypted connection

Every page of the POS and your store loads over HTTPS, so data between the counter and the server is encrypted in transit.

Hosted for you

The software runs on servers we manage, not on the shop tablet. A lost or broken tablet loses no data.

Daily backups

Merchant data is backed up every day, so a mistake or a failure can be restored.

Roles and permissions

Each staff login sees only what its role allows: counter staff don’t see costs, bakers don’t issue refunds.

No card numbers stored

Card payments run on your processor’s terminal; card numbers never pass through or sit in the POS.

Your export, any time

Products, customers and sales export to CSV. Your data is yours if you leave.

What should you do on your side?

  • Give every staff member their own login; never share the owner account.
  • Use the narrowest role that lets each person do their job.
  • Put the counter on a password-protected network, not the customer Wi-Fi.
  • Keep a mobile hotspot as backup internet.
  • Export your key reports monthly for your accountant.

Security and data questions

Where is my bakery’s data stored?

On servers we manage for GetBakeryPOS, not on the device at your counter. You reach it through an encrypted HTTPS connection from any browser.

Who can see my data?

Your staff, according to the roles you give them, and our support team when you ask for help. We do not sell or share merchant data.

Can I export or delete my data?

Yes. Export to CSV any time. If you close your account you can ask us to delete your data; see the data request page.

What happens to my data if I stop paying?

The account pauses and your data is kept for 30 days so you can export it or come back; after that it is deleted.

Is GetBakeryPOS PCI certified?

We make no certification claims. Card payments run on your processor’s terminal, which is where card data is handled; the POS never receives card numbers.

Can staff steal from the drawer more easily?

Less easily: every sale, refund, discount and drawer opening is tied to a staff login, and register close reports show expected versus counted cash.

What if a tablet is stolen?

Change the affected staff password and sign the device out; nothing is stored on the tablet itself.

Does the POS work if the internet goes down?

It is a hosted, online system, so it needs a connection. Keep a mobile hotspot as a backup for the counter; it uses little data.

Your recipes stay your recipes.
