This Statement is effective as of December 2018
This HCMI Privacy Shield Privacy Policy for Cloud Services (the “Policy”) applies to the HCMI Infrastructure-as-a-Service, Platform-as-a-Service, Software-as-a-Service, and other hosted offerings that are Privacy Shield certified (“Privacy Shield-Certified Cloud Services”). A list of these offerings is provided below; if an offering is not on this list, it is not covered by the Privacy Shield.
As the Privacy Shield only applies to personal data transferred from European Economic Area (EEA) and from Switzerland to the United States, this Statement only applies to personal data from the EEA and Switzerland that is hosted in the United States through the Privacy Shield-Certified Cloud Services or for select offerings when the data is hosted outside the United States but the Cloud Service processing is temporarily directed to a United States data center to enable continued availability and resiliency. This Policy does not otherwise apply when clients choose to have their offering content hosted in other countries.
HCMI’s Privacy Shield-Certified Cloud Services process content (which may include the personal data of individual end users) on behalf of enterprise clients. In this scenario, and as provided below, HCMI may direct inquiries from individual end users to the enterprise client that oversees the use of their personal data.
HCMI complies with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of personal information transferred from the European Union and Switzerland to the United States. HCMI has certified to the Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Privacy Shield Principles. If there is any conflict between the terms in this privacy policy and the Privacy Shield Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles shall govern.
All personal data received from the EEA and Switzerland in connection with Privacy Shield-Certified Cloud Services is subject to the Privacy Shield principles as described in the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework and the Swiss-US Privacy Shield Framework, respectively, which apply to all HCMI affiliates that process personal data associated with Privacy Shield-Certified Cloud Services.

Personal Data: Types and Purpose for Use
The types of personal data that Privacy Shield-Certified Cloud Services collect will vary based on the type and nature of each offering, and is described in its offering documentation or as otherwise provided by HCMI. HCMI uses such personal data as needed to deliver the Cloud Service, along with additional purposes that may be described in the corresponding TD or Attachment.
Use of Subprocessors
HCMI may use processors and subprocessors (including personnel and resources) in locations worldwide to deliver the Cloud Services. A list of subprocessors is available upon request. If HCMI subcontracts the performance of any of the Cloud Services pursuant to any Attachment or TD, HCMI will be liable to the Client for the acts and omissions of HCMI subcontractors as if they were the acts or omissions of HCMI under the agreement governing the Cloud Services (subject to the limits and exclusions of liability).
Regulatory Authority and Disclosures
HCMI is subject to investigatory and enforcement powers of the Federal Trade Commission in the United States in connection with its Privacy Shield program. HCMI may also be required to disclose personal information in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.
Additional Information for End Users
If end users have any questions or complaints concerning HCMI’s processing of personal data on behalf of an HCMI enterprise client, they are invited to contact the enterprise client directly, or they may contact HCMI here. End users who wish to access the personal data that HCMI hosts on behalf of an enterprise client, or to make choices concerning their data, are invited to contact the enterprise client directly.
