3rd party integrations
We are proud to support nearly 100 3rd party integrations and we have prepared guides to some of the most used ones. Our open integration architecture using real-time APIs, Webhook, batch CSV/XML, or databases-based exchange, allows us to exchange data and trigger actions with most CRM, ERP, AdTech, MarTech solutions, communication channels, and various databases, both on-premise and cloud-based. The approach varies and while not always out of the box, provides a flexible and customizable solution to suit particular use cases and situations.
IT security and data protection
We have always taken the topics of security and privacy at Bloomreach very seriously. It is our highest priority to protect the data we work with, including our clients’ data. This is why we have dedicated an extensive part of our documentation to outline our Security Architecture, Security Controls, as well as Consent Management, Managing PII, or practical GDPR Use Cases.
We are also proud to show our security and privacy certificates, including GDPR and ISO certifications proving our diligent approach to safe and secure development and operational practices, quality management, and protection of sensitive data in cloud-hosted environments.
