What do I need to know about Data Privacy?What do I need to know about Data Privacy?
Personal data generally includes information relating to an individual -think business card (e.g. names, email addresses, home address) In some countries, also includes information about identified partnerships, associations, or corporations.
IBM is a data processor, entity that processes personal data on behalf of the data controller, who would be the client responsible for entering the data.In most cases, Passport Advantage agreement covers data privacy for personal data.
EU and Switzerland have additional data privacy regulations but have established the ability to create a framework with the U.S for accessing personal data.
C&SI SaaS is in the process of obtaining EU Safe Harbor certification. This requires a risk assessment after we Go Live. In the meantime, we have security measures in place to restrict access to EU client data and for IBM non-U.S. employee access to Amsterdam hosting center in order to comply.
IBM has an Online Privacy Statement which is another EU Safe Harbor requirement
See the SaaS Center of Competency web site for further details on country-unique privacy requirements
