XXX Privacy

Privacy is a basic right and freedom to which everyone, everywhere is entitled. As technology rapidly evolves and data generation and sharing grows at an explosive pace, safeguarding the privacy of personal information presents critical challenges for HP and our industry. HP recognizes the fundamental importance of privacy, security, and data protection to our customers and employees. To safeguard their rights, we give top priority to protecting both our own data and the personal information entrusted to us by customers. Our approach involves relationships with a wide range of stakeholders, both internal and external to our operations. We strive to provide protections that exceed legal minimums and deploy consistent global policies and procedures. Privacy and information security controls protect personal information transmitted to and from our customers, con- sumers, and business partners. To counter the growing number and increased sophis- tication of global cyberattacks and to enable our customers to safeguard the security of their own operations, we offer market-leading technologies, products, and solutions that provide high levels of security protection. We also advocate globally for effective, compatible privacy frameworks and share best practices with peers, governments, and other stakeholders. Through these efforts and commitments, we give our employees and customers the confidence that HP technology can be used freely and securely to do amazing things. Looking to the future, people will interact with technology in ever-changing ways. Inno- vations such as the Internet of Things, wearable technology, and immersive computing will require similarly inventive tools to protect people’s privacy. As new privacy and security issues arise, HP will keep pushing ahead with cutting-edge solutions that help our customers safely take advantage of the transformative benefits of technology.
