Torii Commitment to the GDPR

Torii is fully committed to GDPR compliance.

What is GDPR?

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a new EU regulation intend to strengthen and unify data protection for all individuals within the European Union (EU). It also addresses the export of personal data outside the EU. The GDPR aims primarily to give control back to citizens and residents over their personal data and to simplify the regulatory environment for international business by unifying the regulation within the EU.

GDPR will replace the 1995 data protection directive. The regulation becomes enforceable from 25 May 2018.

The full GDPR text can be found here.

Key Principles of GDPR

  • Personal data collected needs to be processed in a fair, legal, and transparent way. It should not be used in any way that a person would not reasonably expect.
  • Personal data should only be collected to fulfill a specific purpose and not further used in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes. Organizations must specify why they need the personal data when they collect it.
  • Personal data held needs to be kept up to date and accurate. It should be held no longer than necessary to fulfill its purpose.
  • EU citizens have the right to access their own personal data. They can also request a copy of their data, and that their data be updated, deleted, restricted, or moved to another organization without hinderance.
  • All personal data needs to be kept safe and secure, and companies undertaking certain types of activities are now required to appoint a data protection officer.

Does GDPR Applies to Torii?

Yes. While Torii is a non-EU business, we do have customers in the EU. Moreover, EU citizens may use our US instance and by that we must comply with the GDPR regulations.

What Personal Information Does Torii Collect and Process?

The GDPR definition of personal data includes what we typically consider personally identifiable information (PII)—name, passport number, birth date, etc.—but, it also includes data that we might consider to be non-PII, like IP addresses or device IDs.
