DataAcuity BI Pipeline

Your app events → anonymised → enriched → ready for the dashboards you actually need.

We run a complete data pipeline as a service: extract from your production database, strip the personally-identifiable fields, enrich with geographic and FX context, and push business-safe aggregates back so your apps can read their own intelligence. Designed for POPIA, GDPR, and FICA compliance — not bolted on after the fact.

Status: design complete, foundation deployed, early-access customers being onboarded one at a time. Get in touch to be next.

The four layers

1. Extract

Daily or 15-minute incremental pulls from your read replica. We never touch your primary. Built on Airbyte or supabase/etl depending on freshness needs.

2. Anonymise

Deterministic salted SHA-256 hashing of identifiers, tokenisation of recoverable fields (SA ID, IBAN), generalisation of quasi-identifiers. K-anonymity ≥ 5 enforced by dbt tests.

3. Enrich

Geographic context via GeoGlobal (city, country, POI category), temporal context (holidays, paydays), FX conversion, user-lifecycle segment, cross-app sessions.

4. Serve

Marts queryable from Apache Superset, or pushed back to your app's database as anonymised per-user summaries so apps can render their own analytics locally.

Built compliance-first

POPIA

All eight conditions mapped to specific pipeline controls. 72-hour breach notification process. Right-to-be-forgotten propagates within 30 days end-to-end.

GDPR

Articles 5, 6, 15–22, 25, 30, 32–35 mapped. DPIA template ready for reviewer sign-off. Pseudonymisation by design.

FICA

Five-year retention for financial transaction records handled via the compliance token vault — readable by audit on request, never by analysts.

CCPA

Right-to-know, right-to-delete, right-to-correct, non-discrimination — all wired through the same flows POPIA mandates.

Why we're being careful with onboarding

BI Pipeline customers send us their production data. We want to take that seriously. Right now we're onboarding one customer at a time, doing a real Data Protection Impact Assessment per engagement, and making sure the anonymisation layer is signed off by a named compliance reviewer before any data flows.

If you want analytics on your TGN-ecosystem app (TagMe, Takemehome, BidBaas, etc.) get in touch — you're already in scope.

Want analytics done right?
