Agilent Data Protection and Privacy Program

At Agilent, we recognize the importance of data protection and privacy. We are committed to acting in accord with our values, particularly those of Uncompromising Integrity and Accountability, in handling personal data and being a responsible data steward and a trusted partner in this digital and global business environment. We will treat the collection of data according to the applicable laws, and in line with our privacy principles of respecting individual rights, acting with transparency, and embedding privacy in our design.
 

DATA PROTECTION AND PRIVACY PROGRAM

We are actively monitoring and adapting our program to the emerging privacy and security regulations around the globe and the unparalleled shift to digital interactions due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Agilent continues to build upon our comprehensive principles-based data protection and privacy program, emphasizing the provision of appropriate privacy notices, acting with transparency and in accordance with our notices and embedding data protection and privacy-by-design into both our products and business operations. We do so while adapting our approaches to cater to remote workforces, online collaboration and increased digital interactions with our customers. We continue to develop and deliver new data protection and privacy content, communications, and training to engage Agilent’s global employee base and support our commitments to protect the data entrusted to us.

To further embed privacy into our business, we operate a global Data Subject Access Request (DSAR) intake and response process to ensure we provide timely responses to all individual data privacy rights requests. In addition, Agilent has a comprehensive Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) process to systematically assess and evaluate risk for new and changed uses of personal data.

Agilent’s Data Protection and Privacy program governance strategy includes a Data Privacy Board with Senior Management across the entire business, complemented by dedicated Privacy Champions in each function, responsible for acting as the voice of privacy in their functional area. We have leveraged and expanded our Program’s processes and governance strategy to address newly emerging privacy regulations across the globe.
