Your records never leave the country.
Cemetery registers are permanent public records, and many hold personal information protected by provincial privacy law. Plotbase is built and operated on a simple rule: Canadian records live on Canadian infrastructure.
Hosted in Canada
Production systems run in Canadian data centres. Your data is stored, processed and served inside Canada.
Backups in Canada — never the US
Every backup and replica stays on Canadian soil. No US backup location, ever — a hard requirement we design to, not an option we upsell.
Built for public-sector privacy rules
Designed to support the data-residency and access expectations of provincial FOI and privacy legislation for local government.
Canadian company, Canadian support
Built and supported from British Columbia, with live support during Pacific business hours and a team that knows Canadian cemetery practice.
A cemetery register is a hundred-year commitment.
Most software decisions can be revisited in five years. A cemetery record cannot: the register your office keeps today will still be answering questions for families, genealogists and courts a century from now. Where that register physically lives — and whose laws govern access to it — is not a technicality.
Data stored with, or backed up through, providers outside Canada can fall under foreign legal process regardless of where the customer sits. For a municipal record that mixes public register details with personal information, the simplest defensible position is the one Plotbase takes: everything stays in Canada — primary storage, processing, and every backup.
That position also keeps procurement simple. When your RFP asks for Canadian data residency with no US backup, the answer is one word rather than a page of qualifications.
