Compliance

Upfront

Where can the Unique employees maintain the solution be from?

  • Globally

  • US + EU/Switzerland/UK

  • EU, Switzerland + UK

  • Switzerland Only

  • US Only

From which locations is Unique allowed to access the single tenant to provide support.

Compliance, Data Residency

In which Azure region should the primary deployment reside?

  • All regions from Azure

https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/explore/global-infrastructure/geographies/#overview

Which Azure regions could be used for any OpenAI or LLM interactions?

  • Global Standard

  • Datazone Standard

  • Regional: ___________________

More regions = more flexibility and potentially better quality.

Check regions for OpenAI Models here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/openai/concepts/models

Compliance, Email Data Sub-processing

How and if would you like the IDP from Unique AI to communicate with you?

  • We bring our own SMTP credentials

  • We don’t need email notifications (SSO)

  • We allow processing by Uniques Email Server

See Outgoing notifications below

Tenant Settings, Domain

Which x.unique.app URL do you choose?

  • _________________.unique.app

You can select your subdomain yourselves. The self-selected URL must at least be 4 characters long and should not exceed a human readable length otherwise no one can type that.

The format is always https://<selection>.unique.app.

The name must not be generic like my.unique.app or genai.unique.app but a bit dedicated like customer-alias-prod.unique.app or so. Unique reserves the right to reject an URL if it was chosen without their consent.

note

You must consent in written form that this URL will appear in Uniques code base as part of the Infrastructure/Configuration as Code.

The URL can’t be changed afterwards without significant effort (timeline and monetary impact).

Tenant Settings, Tab Name

Anytime, the earlier the better

Tenant Settings, Theme

You can change the theme anytime later on. It though makes sense to start early so the tenant can be presented from start in the desired appearance.

Style Unique AI to your Corporate Identity

Tenant Settings, Feature Flags and Settings

Get in touch with your SPOC to define certain behavior up front.

You find various product options in https://unique-ch.atlassian.net/wiki/pages/createpage.action?spaceKey=PUBDOC&title=Unique%20for%20Administrators, feel free to request certain administrative configurations up front to ease your start.

Tenant Settings, SSO

If you want to bring your own SSO or SAML, prepare the information and credentials as early as possible with your central team(s).

Unique leverages Zitadel as its IDP - that means all Identity Providers from Zitadel are supported.

Tenant Settings, IP-Blocking

If IP-Blocking is desired, please provide all IPs or Ranges (CIDR)

See below.

Tenant Settings, Multiple Orgs

If the to be configured IDP should sport multiple organizations, let the Unique Point Of Contact know so that can be prepared.

SSO can only be tied to one organization. But for testing, development or quality purposes more organizations with username, password (or SSO but another domain) can be configured.

Identity and Access Management (IAM)

Further options

Outgoing notifications

If the client would like that our IDP sends out e-mails (for sign-up confirmations, 2FA with e-mail, password change links etc.), they must either trust the @unique.ai e-mail domain as we will send them via our mail server or they must provide a valid SMTP configuration themselves in an encrypted way to us.

Unique does not host e-mail services, there are enough out there to do so.

IP-Blocking

Unique Single Tenants can be isolated using IP-Filtering on the Application Gateway. This option shall be considered carefully as it has a functionality as well as monetary impact. Approach your SPOC to discuss this option.

Unique Employees (Support or Solution Engineering) will be allow-listed using Uniques VPN and Office Outbound IP-Addresses.

Insights on IP-Blocking

IP block costs ~500$ per month in Azure costs (using Azure Application Gateway Web Application Firewall) and increases management effort to manage for both parties.

Also, repeatedly toggling the blocking on and off is subject to additional service charges.

If desired, you must provide your complete list of IP-Addresses and CIDR ranges to the Unique SPOC. By providing the list you agree that the content will be used in infrastructure as code.

You also agree to sport the necessary knowledge internally to debug 403 errors thrown by the Gateway to investigate why certain requests from your IPs don’t work.
