Trust Center
A publicly accessible page that communicates your compliance posture to prospects, customers, and partners — without requiring them to create an account or sign an NDA.
What is a Trust Center?
A Trust Center is a public-facing webpage that shows your organisation's compliance certifications, active security policies, and overall control readiness score. It serves as a self-service resource for:
- ✓ Prospects evaluating your product during security reviews
- ✓ Customers who want to verify ongoing compliance status between formal audits
- ✓ Enterprise buyers who require vendor security documentation before procurement
- ✓ Partners assessing third-party risk for their own compliance programs
Rather than repeatedly sending static PDFs or answering the same security questionnaire questions, you can share a single Trust Center URL that always reflects your current compliance state.
Enabling the Trust Center
The Trust Center is disabled by default. Only an ADMIN user can enable it.
-
Navigate to Trust Center Settings
In the sidebar, click Trust Center. You'll see the settings page (accessible to ADMIN users only).
-
Choose a slug
Enter a URL-friendly identifier for your organisation (e.g.,
acme-corp). This becomes the last segment of your public URL:Public URL formathttps://app.zgovern.com/trust/acme-corpThe slug must be lowercase, contain only letters, numbers, and hyphens, and be unique across all zGovern organisations.
-
Toggle "Make Public"
Flip the isPublic toggle to on. The Trust Center page is now live and accessible to anyone with the URL — no login required.
-
Add a custom message (optional)
You can add a custom introductory message that appears at the top of your Trust Center. This is a good place to include:
- A brief description of your security program
- Contact information for your security team
- Links to your full privacy policy or DPA
-
Share the URL
Copy the public URL and share it with prospects, customers, or include it in your questionnaire responses and marketing materials.

Website Security Page
Embed your Trust Center URL on your product website's Security page or in your privacy policy footer. Visitors can verify your compliance posture without contacting sales.
Partner Due Diligence
