Responsibility

The honest version, including the gaps.

Most responsibility pages are read for what they assert. This one is worth reading for what it does not: every certification, figure and badge the group could plausibly display and deliberately does not.

What Dorsko is, and what it is not

resp.posture.intro

check_circle

What the group is

  • A company formation and business services provider

    Dorsko Limited forms companies, provides registered-office support and runs the compliance calendar that follows incorporation.

  • A software company

    Dorsko OÜ is registered in Estonia with computer programming as its principal activity. The group builds and operates its own platforms rather than reselling somebody else's.

  • A data controller under UK GDPR and KVKK

    The group processes personal data in the course of forming and verifying companies, and accepts the obligations that follow — lawful basis, minimisation, retention limits and subject rights.

What the group is not

  • Not a bank

    Dorsko holds no banking licence and takes no deposits.

  • Not a licensed payment institution

    DorskoPay is in development. It is not authorised, it is not live, and nothing on this site should be read as an offer of regulated payment services.

  • Does not hold client funds

    The group does not operate client money accounts and does not hold funds on behalf of clients.

  • Not a law firm or an accountancy practice

    Nothing Dorsko publishes or provides is legal, tax or accounting advice. Where a question needs a regulated adviser, we say so.

  • Not a government body

    Dorsko is a private group of companies. It files with the registers; it is not one of them, and it has no authority beyond that of any other applicant.

Governance and conduct

Three registered entities, each accountable in its own jurisdiction, held to one standard of disclosure.

Registered in the open

Each operating entity is registered with its national register, and the register entry is linked from its company page with the date it was last checked. A reader can verify the group without asking us for anything.

One source for every claim

Company numbers, dates, product status and press classifications are each held in one place in the code and rendered from there. A figure cannot say one thing on the homepage and another on a detail page.

Anti-money-laundering obligations taken as binding

Company formation is a gateway activity, and the group treats identity and beneficial-ownership checks as a condition of doing the work — not as a form to be cleared.

No claim without a source

No certification, accelerator membership, partner badge or award is displayed on this site. None has been awarded, and displaying one would be a false statement to the body that awards it.

Data protection

Formation clients hand over identity documents and papers describing who controls a legal entity. That bundle is more sensitive than most of what a business application holds.

Collect the minimum

The contact form on this site asks for four fields, and none of them is optional-but-collected-anyway. Product platforms collect what the filing or the check actually requires.

One cookie on this site

aboutdorsko.com sets a single session cookie and runs no advertising or analytics trackers. The cookie notice describes it in full.

Rights are exercisable by email

Access, correction, erasure, portability and objection requests reach a person at the group address. There is no portal to navigate first.

Processors are named

Where a third party processes data on the group's behalf — hosting, mail delivery, font serving — the privacy notice names it rather than referring to "our partners".

lock

Security

Document access is treated as the security boundary, because for this business it is the security boundary.

Transport and session hardening

The site is served over TLS, sets its session cookie as secure, HTTP-only and same-site, and sends content-type, framing, referrer and permissions headers on every response.

Parameterised data access

Every database query on this site is a prepared statement, and every form carries a CSRF token that is checked before anything is written.

A route for reporting a problem

The group publishes a security.txt under RFC 9116 with a contact address and a preferred language, so a researcher who finds something has somewhere to send it.

Human review where it counts

Automated extraction is confident when it is wrong. In verification work the group keeps a person on anything with consequence, and designs the review step rather than bolting it on.

diversity_3

Access and inclusion

The group exists because forming a company in a country you do not live in is harder than it needs to be, and the difficulty is unevenly distributed.

Built for non-residents first

The formation platform is designed for founders who are not in the country they are incorporating in — the case most incumbents treat as an exception.

Guidance in the reader's language

anasirket exists because Turkish-speaking founders were being handed guidance written for somebody else. Group content is maintained in more than one language for the same reason.

An accessibility target, and a way to report a failure

The site targets WCAG 2.2 Level AA, publishes what is not yet conformant, and gives an address for reporting a barrier.

Plain language over legal register

Policies are written to be read by the person they apply to. Where a term has to be technical, it is defined where it appears.

eco

Environment

An honest section rather than a flattering one: the group is small, digital and does not currently measure its footprint.

No emissions figure is published

Dorsko has not carried out a greenhouse-gas inventory. Publishing an unmeasured number, or an offset claim bought against one, would be the kind of statement the rest of this page exists to avoid.

What the operation actually is

A digital services business with no manufacturing, no fleet, no warehousing and no retail estate. The material footprint is hosted compute, business travel and the devices people work on.

Filing electronically by default

Formation and compliance work is carried out through electronic filing where the register supports it, which is both faster for the client and less wasteful than a paper process.

Consolidation as the near-term goal

Applications currently sit across several hosting arrangements. Consolidating them onto one managed platform is on the roadmap, and lower idle capacity is one of the reasons for it.

Six things Dorsko does not say about itself

resp.notclaimed.intro

Every one of these becomes a claim on this page the day there is a certificate, an acceptance letter or a measurement behind it — and not a day earlier.

Questions we are asked

Is Dorsko a bank or a licensed payment institution?

No. Dorsko holds no banking licence, is not an authorised payment institution and does not hold client funds. DorskoPay is in development and is not a live regulated service.

Does Dorsko give legal or tax advice?

No. Dorsko is a company formation and business services provider, not a law firm or an accountancy practice. Nothing it publishes or provides is legal, tax or accounting advice.

Is Dorsko ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certified?

No. No certification has been awarded to any Dorsko entity, and none is claimed anywhere on this site. If one is awarded, it will be published with the certificate details.

Does Dorsko publish carbon emissions data?

No. The group has not carried out a greenhouse-gas inventory, so it publishes no emissions figure and makes no carbon-neutral or net-zero claim.
