Data Hosting with Confidence – Flex SaaS for Clinical Trial Environments 

At Flex Databases, we deliver a SaaS solution purpose-built for clinical trials – offering global accessibility with full transparency and control over where your data resides. 

Not a Public Cloud. A Dedicated SaaS Platform You Can Trust. 

Flex Databases is an EU-based company operating globally and trusted by life sciences organizations for secure, validated SaaS solutions tailored to the strict requirements of regulated clinical research. 
Our platform is hosted in ISO/IEC 27001-certified data centers and is never deployed to the public cloud. Instead, we rely on a select group of trusted infrastructure providers. 

Client-Defined Hosting – You Choose the Location 

With Flex, clients always choose where their data is hosted. Server locations: in the EU, US, Australia or other geographies are defined at project kickoff based on your regulatory, contractual, or sponsor-specific requirements. 

Clear, Contractual Hosting Transparency 

Every deployment includes: 

  • One primary production server 
  • One backup/disaster recovery server 
     

Hosting locations are clearly stated in your contract and maintenance plan – ensuring full visibility into where your clinical trial data is stored at all times. 

Certified Global Infrastructure 

Our infrastructure providers operate under: 

  • ISO/IEC 27001 certification 
  • GxP-aligned quality systems 
  • Rigorous security and compliance controls 
     

All facilities undergo regular audits to meet the expectations of sponsors, CROs, and regulatory bodies. 

Worldwide Access – Local Control 

While Flex is accessible globally through secure, validated connections, your data always remains in the contractually designated hosting region. This helps ensure compliance with GDPR, HIPAA, and ICH GCP while maintaining the highest standards for data integrity and patient confidentiality.
