Data security matters more than ever. Clients need partners they can trust with their most sensitive information. Phenomenon Studio has just achieved HIPAA and GDPR certification.
Here’s what this achievement means for our clients and why it matters for your projects.
Our certification demonstrates our commitment to protecting both Protected Health Information (PHI) and Personally Identifiable Information (PII) according to the world’s strictest regulatory frameworks.
HIPAA and GDPR represent the gold standard for data protection worldwide. Each framework addresses different but overlapping areas of data security.
HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) governs Protected Health Information in the United States. This federal law establishes strict requirements for encryption, access control, breach notification, and audit procedures. Any organization handling health-related data must comply with these standards.
GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) applies to all personal data belonging to EU and UK citizens. The regulation enforces data minimization principles, user consent requirements, the right to erasure, and privacy by design methodologies.
Achieving certification for both frameworks requires passing independent audits that verify robust administrative, physical, and technical safeguards. Organizations must demonstrate consistent implementation of security controls that meet or exceed these global standards.

Our path to certification involved comprehensive preparation across all areas of our business. Between July and September 2025, 100% of Phenomenon Studio employees completed annual HIPAA training, with all participants achieving passing scores above 80%.

This training covered essential topics including data handling procedures, incident response protocols, and privacy protection strategies. Our team now has deep, organization-wide understanding of compliance obligations and best practices.
We also developed and published complete compliance documentation, including:
Our internal compliance team approved and attested all documentation as complete in September 2025. These policies provide clear guidelines for maintaining security standards across all client engagements.
Third-party security assessments validated our technical controls and operational procedures. Independent auditors confirmed that our systems meet the stringent requirements of both regulatory frameworks.
Our certification creates immediate value for every client working with Phenomenon Studio.
Verified Security Controls ensure all systems follow industry best practices. We implement encryption at rest and in transit, multi-factor authentication, strict access control, and immutable audit logs across all projects.
Privacy by Design means every product and process minimizes data exposure from the earliest design stage. We build compliance directly into our development methodology rather than adding it as an afterthought.
Regulatory Confidence allows clients in healthcare, finance, and technology sectors to engage with us knowing we meet global legal standards. This reduces risk and simplifies compliance for client organizations.
Streamlined Due Diligence saves clients time and legal costs. Our independent certification provides objective verification of security practices, reducing the burden of vendor risk assessments.
International clients benefit from simplified cross-border operations. Our dual compliance creates one unified framework for handling both personal and healthcare data globally.
Phenomenon Studio’s HIPAA and GDPR certification marks a defining step in delivering secure, privacy-first digital products globally. We’re setting a new benchmark for trust and accountability in creative technology.
Our certification validates more than technical compliance. It demonstrates a culture of responsibility where respecting data privacy forms the foundation of long-term client relationships.
