Data protection & compliance
Protecting personal data is central to the way Campaignmaster is designed and operated. Our platforms are built to help organisations manage customer data securely while supporting their data protection and compliance obligations. Campaignmaster processes personal data in accordance with applicable UK data protection legislation, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Data ownership
Your organisation remains the data controller and retains ownership of its data at all times. Campaignmaster acts as the data processor, processing personal data only to deliver the services we provide on your behalf.
Customer control
You remain in control of your customer data throughout its lifecycle, with the ability to import, export, update and permanently delete records whenever required. Your organisation determines what personal data is stored within the platform based on your own business requirements.
Built for compliance
We support organisations in meeting their UK GDPR obligations through secure data handling, consent management, unsubscribe functionality and other built-in compliance features. Where consent is collected through Campaignmaster subscriber forms, consent records are date and time stamped to help organisations demonstrate proof of consent. Our platform supports unsubscribe functionality and, where configured, subscriber preference management to help organisations send relevant communications.
Data lifecycle management
Customer data can be corrected, exported or permanently removed to support data retention policies and applicable data protection requirements, including the right to erasure where appropriate.
Platform security
Our platforms have been designed with security built in at every level. From encrypted communications and secure authentication to industry best practices, we help protect your data both in transit and at rest.
Secure communications
All Campaignmaster platforms are delivered over secure HTTPS connections using SSL/TLS encryption to help protect data transmitted between users and our platforms.
Email encryption
We support Opportunistic TLS as standard for SMTP, encrypting email communications whenever the receiving mail server supports it. For organisations with stricter security requirements, Forced TLS can also be configured where appropriate.
Secure authentication
Every user has their own unique account credentials, helping to ensure secure access and clear user accountability across your organisation.
Built for secure operations
Security is built into every stage of all our platforms’ designs, development and ongoing maintenance, helping protect against emerging threats and evolving security risks.

In-house development
One of the advantages of working with Campaignmaster is knowing exactly who develops, maintains and supports your platforms. We believe keeping development in-house allows us to maintain consistently high standards of security, quality and customer support.
Developed in-house
Our platforms are designed, developed and maintained entirely by our own team. We do not outsource software development, allowing us to retain complete control of our products and respond quickly to customer feedback and security updates.
No sub-processors
Campaignmaster does not use third-party sub-processors to deliver its core platform services. This helps us maintain greater control over customer data and provides customers with greater transparency over how their information is handled.
Access controls
Keeping your account secure starts with controlling who can access it. Campaignmaster provides a range of features to help organisations manage user access securely while maintaining flexibility for teams of all sizes.
Two-factor authentication (2FA)
For organisations requiring additional account security, two-factor authentication (2FA) provides an extra layer of protection by requiring users to verify their identity before accessing the platform.
IP restrictions
Administrators can restrict platform access to approved IP addresses, helping ensure that only users connecting from authorised locations can sign in.
Individual accounts
Each user has their own unique login credentials, allowing organisations to manage access securely while maintaining accountability across their teams.
Role-based permissions
Administrators can assign user permissions based on individual roles and responsibilities, ensuring users only have access to the areas and functionality they need.
