General Data Protection Regulation Compliancy
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a regulation that harmonizes national data privacy laws throughout the EU and enhances the protection of all EU residents with respect to their personal data.
The operations, business practices, and processes used for the Solace Cloud at Solace are compliant with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) laws. Here are examples of how Solace complies with GDPR:
- Application data: All application data is deleted when a specific event broker service is decommissioned (or upon contract termination).
- Persistent Data: The data destruction of encrypted, persisted event/messaging data is provided by the relevant cloud service provider that was used for deployment.
- Messaging Plane: Messaging data that is resident within an isolated VPC/VNet . For Customer-Controlled Clusters, the customer handles the data; for messaging data that goes through Dedicated Clusters, Solace handles the data.
- Event broker service logs: Any logs collected from event broker services are retained for 30 days (optionally 90 days upon request for Solace Insights subscribers); the logs contain monitoring data, high-level commands, and metadata and do not contain personal-identifiable information (PII) or information that identifies the customer.
