Alexandria, VA (February 19, 2025) – Drumroll, please... 🥁 HeyTaco has officially achieved SOC 2 Type II certification! While we're best known for spreading joy and appreciation through virtual tacos, we're also serious about protecting your data (because nobody likes a security breach—not even on Taco Tuesday).
“This is a huge milestone for us and everyone who uses HeyTaco,” said Doug Dosberg, Founder and CEO of HeyTaco. “We've always been focused on helping teams celebrate each other, but now we can proudly say that while you're showering your coworkers with tacos, we're keeping your data locked down tighter than the office snack drawer.”
As HeyTaco continues to grow, SOC 2 compliance ensures we meet the strict security standards that customers (and their IT teams) expect. But this isn't just about checking boxes—it's about providing a safe, secure, and positive environment where teams can connect through appreciation.
“At HeyTaco, it's all about building deeper team connections,” added Dosberg. “Now, we're doing that with the added confidence that our platform is rock solid when it comes to security. So you can keep spreading positivity without worrying about data falling through the cracks—or worse, into the wrong hands.”
This certification is just the beginning. We're committed to continuously improving our platform—ensuring recognition stays fun, effective, and safer than a taco in a hard-shell case. Stay tuned for exciting new features (and, yes, more ways to make your coworkers smile).
HeyTaco is the leading peer-to-peer recognition platform that transforms workplace appreciation into a fun, gamified experience. Using virtual tacos as gratitude tokens, HeyTaco helps teams build positive cultures, boost morale, and strengthen collaboration—without the calories of actual tacos (though we highly recommend those, too).
Available on Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Google Chat, HeyTaco is trusted by over 2,000 teams worldwide to improve work.
