Data Protection and Data Security

1.3 Data Protection and Data Security
This system also processes and uses personal data for purposes such as call detail recording,
displays, and customer data acquisition.
In Germany, the processing and use of such personal data are subject to various regulations,
including the regulations of the Federal Data Protection Law (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz =
BDSG). For other countries, please follow the appropriate national laws.
The aim of data protection is to protect the rights of individuals being affected by use of their
personal data.
In addition, the aim of data protection is to prevent the misuse of data when it is processed and
to ensure that one's own interests and the interests of other parties which need to be protected
are not affected.
Members of Siemens and Siemens Rolm staff are required to observe business and data se-
crecy as a result of the company's work rules.
In order to ensure that the statutory requirements during service – whether during "on-site ser-
vice" or during "remote service" – are consistently met, you should always observe the following
rules. You will not only maintain the interests of your and our customers, you will also avoid per-
sonal consequences.
Conscious action helps maintain data protection and data security:
Ensure that only appropriately authorized persons have access to customer data.
Take full advantage of password assignment options; do not allow unauthorized persons
to gain access to passwords by writing them down on a piece of paper or through other
means.
Ensure that no unauthorized person is able to process (store, modify, transmit, disable, de-
lete) or use customer data in any way.
Prevent unauthorized persons from gaining access to data media, e.g. on backup disks or
printed reports. This applies to service calls as well as to storage and transport.
Ensure that data media which are no longer required are completely destroyed. Ensure
that no papers remain generally available.
Work together with your contacts at the customer's company: This creates mutual con-
fidence and reduces your own workload.
