Corporate responsibility

Environmental, Social
& Governance.

Vuisio has been building a responsible company from the start, pragmatically: describing what actually exists rather than displaying commitments our size cannot yet honour. This page separates what is in place, what is under way and what remains an objective.

How to read this page

  • In place True today, verifiable.
  • Under way Started, not finished.
  • Objective Planned, no date promised.

01

Our vision

Four convictions guide our decisions. They are not slogans: each one translates into concrete technical and economic choices, verifiable in the product.

Technology should respect the people using it

A professional tool should not make tracking the price of admission. Vuisio works without measuring how its users behave, because that is not needed to hold a meeting.

Data is not a commodity

Our revenue comes from subscriptions and nothing else. Nothing is resold, nothing is passed to a third party, and no advertising model will ever make that promise expensive to keep.

Performance forces no ethical compromise

Our SFU, written in Rust, routes media without transcoding: less computation for the same service. Technical frugality and respect for users point the same way; they are not in tension.

Decisions are made for the long run

The core is published under AGPL 3.0 and Vuisio can be self-hosted. Our customers therefore do not depend on how our company fares to keep using the product.

02

Environmental

We have not carried out a carbon assessment and we claim no neutrality. Here is what is true today, and what we want to measure before saying anything more.

Current status In place

  • An essentially software business: no industrial production, no vehicle fleet, no heavy physical infrastructure of our own.
  • Little business travel: most of the work happens remotely, and video conferencing is our daily tool.
  • Frugal by design: the SFU routes media without transcoding, the most computationally expensive operation in video conferencing.
  • No superfluous processing on our sites: no analytics, no tracker, no third-party CDN. Fonts are served by us. Every request avoided is a resource saved.
  • Self-hosting is possible: customers can run Vuisio on servers already in service rather than adding capacity.
  • Infrastructure hosted in France and sized on real need, with no comfort headroom.

Future objectives

Objective

Measure before announcing

Establish a first real measurement of our footprint, starting with the consumption of our infrastructure, rather than publishing an unverifiable estimate.

Under way

Optimise cloud resources

Track how our servers are actually used, cut unused capacity and improve throughput per connected participant.

Objective

Favour responsible suppliers

Bring environmental criteria into the choice of our hosts and providers, alongside sovereignty and security.

Objective

Publish indicators over time

Track and then publish environmental indicators here, once the company has the size and the history that make them meaningful.

03

Social

Vuisio is a young company. What follows describes how the project actually works, not procedures our size does not yet justify.

Respect for users

The free plan is not a crippled product designed to force an upgrade: meetings are unlimited in length and in participants. Respecting users starts with not trapping them.

Accessibility

We aim for an interface that is legible, well contrasted and usable by keyboard. Vuisio has not yet been audited against RGAA or WCAG: that is an open task, not an achievement.

Privacy

No meeting data is used for anything other than the service. Privacy is covered in detail in the governance section of this page.

Security

Encrypted streams, a media core written in Rust, third-party browser dependencies kept to the strict minimum. Security protects the people in the meeting first.

Company culture

A small team, code published as open source, and technical choices exposed publicly. What can be checked from outside forces consistency inside.

Diversity

Vuisio recruits and collaborates on the basis of skills and motivation. None of the following criteria plays any part, in either direction:

  • Gender
  • Origin
  • Age
  • Disability
  • Religion
  • Sexual orientation

We have no formal diversity policy, nor the headcount that would make statistics meaningful. Inclusion has been part of the project's culture from the start: that is what we will formalise as the team grows, not a document we would publish before it means anything.

Wellbeing

Respect for the team

A sustainable workload and protected personal time. A young company asks for commitment; it does not justify burnout.

Transparent communication

Decisions are explained, including the unwelcome ones. Nobody learns about an important change after the fact.

Continuous improvement

Internal feedback is taken seriously and acted on. What is not working is named, then fixed.

04

Governance

Vuisio is published by Geezot. Governance today is that of a young structure: few people, quick decisions and clearly identified responsibility. We would rather say so than describe committees that do not exist.

Responsible governance

Decisions commit us for the long run: we avoid those that would make the product depend on a single supplier, or on a business model at odds with our promises.

Transparent decisions

Structural technical choices are visible in the published code. Changes to product policy are announced, not slipped into an update.

Sustainable product development

AGPL 3.0 licence, self-hosting available, documented formats and APIs: nobody is locked into Vuisio, technically or contractually.

Privacy

In place
  • Minimisation: we collect only what the service needs. A meeting requires no account at all.
  • No tracking: no third-party analytics, no advertising cookie, no external CDN on our pages. The anti-spam protection on our forms runs without any third-party service.
  • No resale: data is never sold, never transferred, never used for advertising.
  • Location: our servers are hosted in France, beyond the reach of extraterritorial legislation.
  • Control: self-hosting lets you entrust us with no data at all.

Security

Under way
  • Security by design: a media core written in Rust, a memory-safe language, and an attack surface reduced by the absence of third-party dependencies in the browser.
  • Encrypted streams between participants and the infrastructure.
  • Verifiability: the SFU, the web client, the installer and the load-testing tool are published under AGPL 3.0. Our claims can be audited line by line.
  • Continuous improvement: dependency tracking, patches and updates are part of the development cycle.

Compliance

Under way
  • The GDPR is a founding design goal, not compliance bolted on afterwards: data minimisation, explicit purpose, hosting within the European Union.
  • We follow the European regulatory framework applicable to our activity and fold it into the product as it evolves.
  • Meeting streams and their hosting stay in France, therefore outside the scope of extraterritorial legislation such as the Cloud Act. Signing in to the portal through an American identity provider does send the email address through a company that is subject to it: that is a choice left to the user, and signing in with a password avoids it entirely.

05

Our ESG roadmap

Two columns, one rule: on the left what is true today, on the right what is not yet.

Today

  • A digital company, with no industrial infrastructure
  • Privacy by design: no tracking, minimised data
  • Transparency: core software open under AGPL 3.0, claims that can be checked
  • Responsible development: technical frugality, hosting in France

Next steps

  • Define ESG indicators suited to our size
  • Write down a formal ESG policy
  • Set up environmental monitoring of our infrastructure
  • Structure continuous improvement through regular reviews
  • Publish an annual ESG report

None of these steps carries a date. We would rather announce what we ship than promise a schedule a young company does not control.

06

A commitment to transparency

This page is not a frozen marketing document: it describes a state, at a date, the one shown at the top. It will change as Vuisio does.

As the company grows, our commitments will be documented, measured and published. What appears today as an objective will in time become an observed, dated fact. And if an objective is dropped, it will be removed with the same candour rather than left in the window.

We would rather have a short, accurate page than a thick, unverifiable report. It is the best sign of seriousness we can offer at this stage.
