# Security Security isn’t a feature at Grand β€” it’s the foundation. Every layer of our app is designed to protect your **funds, identity, and transactions**, so you can trade and invest with confidence. ### πŸ›‘οΈ Core Security Principles * **Self-Custody by Default**\ You own your wallet and keys. Grand never takes control of your assets β€” eliminating counterparty risk. * **Passkey & Biometric Login**\ Sign in with Apple or Google, secured by a **passkey** bound to your device. Every trade, transfer, or setting change requires biometric approval (Face ID / Touch ID). * **Audited Smart Contracts**\ Independent audits validate the integrity of our contracts and infrastructure. * **No Hidden Risks**\ All assets are held on-chain, visible and verifiable β€” not with intermediaries. πŸ›‘οΈ **Peace of mind, built-in.** From login to execution, Grand protects you at every step. *** ### πŸ”’ Additional Protections * **Gas-Free Transactions** β†’ No risky manual fee settings, Grand covers gas costs. * **Withdrawal Controls** β†’ All actions are protected by passkeys. * **Social Recovery (Coming Soon)** β†’ If you lose your device, you’ll be able to recover access safely without exposing your private keys. *** ### βœ… Audited-Only Listings At Grand, safety comes first. That’s why we only list: * **Audited Tokens** β†’ Assets backed by reputable audits and proven security standards. * **Verified Protocols** β†’ DeFi protocols and vaults with third-party reviews. * **Trusted dApps** β†’ Applications integrated into Grand must pass both **security and reliability checks**.
