The announcement follows an extensive independent external audit and Talend says the certifications provide assurance in the company’s commitment to protecting customer, employee, and business information assets.

“We’ve prioritised security and privacy needs ahead of any other vendor in the industry. Our customers and employees demand the highest level of data security in accordance with industry best practices,” said Anne Hardy, CISO, Talend.

“Achieving ISO certification is tremendous recognition that demonstrates our commitment to protecting our information assets to the highest standards of information security on a global scale.”

Talend says this certification demonstrates that it has achieved compliance with privacy requirements to establish, implement, maintain and continually improve a robust data privacy management system.

ISO/IEC 27701:2019 builds on the same information security management requirements, controls, and objectives associated with the collection and processing of personally identifiable information (PII) and other types of personal data consistent with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and other data privacy requirements such as the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) in Singapore and the Privacy Act in Australia. 

“The ISO/IEC 27701:2019 certification offers assurance that any personal data we process on behalf of our customers will be handled in compliance with the GDPR requirements, and data privacy regulations worldwide inspired from the GDPR,” said Najwa Annan-Phan, Lead Privacy Counsel and DPO, Talend.

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) govern the security of information assets such as intellectual property, financial information, employee information, as well as information entrusted by third parties.

Talend’s certification scope includes Talend Data Fabric and Stitch, as well as Talend’s R&D, IT, Privacy Compliance, and Information Security practices.
