Frequently Asked Questions
What IT compliance do federal grants require?
Federal grants under Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200) require adequate internal controls, data protection measures, retention policies, and audit trails. Specific requirements vary by agency. We map your IT controls to the exact requirements of your grants.
Do we need PCI compliance for online donations?
Yes. If your organization accepts credit card donations online, by phone, or at events, PCI DSS applies regardless of volume. We help implement compliant donation workflows.
Can you help us prepare for a grant audit?
Absolutely. We provide audit-ready documentation, evidence packages, and can be available during the audit to answer technical questions. Our compliance services are designed for exactly this.
Does HIPAA apply to our health-focused nonprofit?
If your nonprofit handles protected health information, HIPAA likely applies. We provide full HIPAA compliance services including risk assessments, policy development, and technical safeguards.
