Introduction

PolymathPlus LLC is committed to ensuring the continuous operation of our services and minimizing the impact of disruptions to our business operations. This Business Continuity Policy outlines our approach to maintaining the availability of our services and protecting our data.

Objectives

• To ensure the continuous availability of critical business functions and services.
• To minimize the impact of disruptions on our operations.
• To protect our data and maintain the integrity of our services.

Scope

This policy applies to all employees, contractors, and third-party service providers of PolymathPlus LLC. It covers all critical business functions, services, and data managed by PolymathPlus.

Reliance on Hostinger

PolymathPlus LLC relies on Hostinger, a leading web hosting provider, for the hosting of our software, databases, and websites. Hostinger adheres to industry standards and is compliant with ISO/IEC 27001:2017, ensuring robust security, backup, and disaster recovery procedures.

Hostinger's Key Services

• Data Backups: Hostinger performs daily backups of all our critical data.
• Disaster Recovery: Hostinger has comprehensive disaster recovery plans in place, including geo-distributed data centers, to ensure high availability and quick restoration of services in the event of an outage.

External Backups

In addition to the backups managed by Hostinger, PolymathPlus LLC performs periodic backups to an external location independent of Hostinger. These backups provide an additional layer of data protection and ensure that we can recover our data in the event of a catastrophic failure at Hostinger.

Annual System Rebuild Tests

To ensure our ability to recover from a significant disruption, PolymathPlus LLC conducts an annual test to rebuild our entire system on a separate platform. This practice allows us to verify our backup integrity and ensure that our disaster recovery procedures are effective.

Testing Procedures

• Frequency: Once a year
• Scope: Full rebuild of the system on a separate platform
• Objectives: Verify backup integrity, ensure recovery procedures are effective, and identify areas for improvement

• IT Team: Responsible for managing backups, conducting system rebuild tests, and ensuring data integrity.
• All Employees: Responsible for understanding their roles in business continuity procedures and participating in annual tests as required.
