Gramm-Leach-Bliley Compliance

All customers of financial institutions who maintain a relationship or obtain products or services such as those listed here are protected under GLBA.

GLBA affects a wide range of financial institutions such as banks, thrifts, credit unions and insurance firms as well as any firm engaged in activities including:

  • Mortgage Lending
  • Credit Card Activities
  • Securities Brokerage Activities (Including Dealers and Advisors)
  • Insurance Sales (Underwriters and Agents)
  • Tax Planning and Preparation Services
  • Investment Advice

A wide range of non-public personal information and personally identifiable financial information is subject to the privacy controls of GLBA.

IDrive answers security concerns in the following manner:
  • The data is encrypted before transmission, always maintained in encrypted state and immediately available if required
  • Data access is restricted by password authentication and is date and time-stamped by user
  • Client access is only through authorized personnel with the encryption password, which is known only to the user
  • Detailed reporting gives regulators a clear idea of the chain of custody of the stored information, and rapid access, should it be required

Data will remain housed in the IDrive customer storage areas for as long as the client retains it. IDrive does not have access to the contents of the data files stored, so it is up to the client to maintain the data in a manner that is compliant with GLBA.

Note:

  • IDrive cloud backup offers the choice of employing private encryption which is known only to the user and not stored on IDrive servers, in addition to default encryption. Explore the distinction between private and default encryption here.
  • Google Workspace Backup and Microsoft Office 365 Backup employ industry-standard default encryption protocols to ensure secure data storage.
