Infosys has obtained regulatory approvals for its Binding Corporate Rules (BCR) from the Hesse Data Protection Authority, Germany, following concurrence from the EDPB (European Data Protection Board). BCR provides a lawful framework within which organizations can transfer personal data internationally within their group companies. Two sets of BCRs have been approved for Infosys, one as a data controller (BCR-C) and the other as a data processor (BCR-P).
This BCR certification, which has been achieved for both Infosys’ own and client data, strengthens the company’s focus in maintaining consistent standards of data privacy and protection. This further enables seamless transfer of personal information from Europe to any Infosys Group location globally, and it is a milestone achievement in AI-first world in addressing concerns around cross-border data transfers.
Infosys is a leading provider of consulting, technology, outsourcing and next-generation digital services, enabling clients to execute strategies for their digital transformation.
