How is my data and the my customer data kept secure?
What type of data is exchanged?
To implement and operate the solution, we will need a flat data file containing call records (e.g., Agent ID, ANI, call length, etc.) This data is used by our AI-powered Recommendation Engine to determine the best available agent for a given customer and to track performance.
Are you analyzing my customer data to determine personality?
No. Your CDR and CTI data are not used to determine personality insights.
Is my data used at other customers?
No. Other customers do not use any of the raw data you provide, including CDR records and information through a CTI connection to the ACD.
How do you ensure the security and privacy of customer data?
NICE upholds a commitment to privacy and security across our software and infrastructure. Trusted products are our top priority. We meet our privacy and security commitment with strict solution privacy standards:
- Confidential written customer agreements
- The behavioral database contains no protected class information
- The behavioral database contains de-identified caller phone number data
- The behavioral database does not contain any third-party data
- The behavioral database does not contain any Personally Identifiable Information (PII)
- No customers have access to the behavioral database
- Data from the behavioral database is never sold or licensed to any third parties
- Customer data is stored and protected separately and utilizes dedicated application service processing
Our team of SaaS security and privacy experts are proud to uphold the rigorous privacy standards that earn and maintain the trust of our customers.
