First Insight Compliance Statement

Security Statement

First Insight utilizes some of the most advanced technology for internet security available today. When you access InsightSUITE, your information is protected using both server authentication and encrypted data transmission. This ensures that your data is safe, secure, and available only to registered users in your company.

All First Insight user accounts must have a password with the following characteristics:

These additional password controls are also enforced:

InsightSUITE issues a session "cookie" only to record encrypted authentication information for the duration of a specific session. The session "cookie" does not include either the username or password of the user. InsightSUITE does not use "cookies" to store other confidential user and session information, but instead implements more advanced security methods based on dynamic data and encoded session IDs.

InsightSUITE is hosted in a secure server environment that uses a firewall and other advanced technology to prevent interference or access from outside intruders.

Your Responsibility Related to Security

Although First Insight takes great strides to provide a secure environment for sensitive product data, security is a shared responsibility between you and us. Each of us has a role to play in protecting your data. Customers must:

Processing Integrity Statement

As it relates to Insight setup, monitoring, and analysis, First Insight believes in the notion of “garbage in-garbage out”. That is, if the product data being used to set up Insights is not appropriate, the results you receive from our predictive analytics will result in sub-optimal results. First Insight provides best practices for Insights to be set up to support high quality results and recommends that customers use these best practices.

Your product data is your intellectual property (IP). We will treat your data with the sensitivity it deserves. Only First Insight employees who are adequately trained on our security and processing integrity policies are authorized to handle your sensitive product data.

Confidentiality Statement

First Insight takes the security of customer data very seriously. We have created a robust confidentiality policy to ensure that your data remains secure.

First Insight classifies data as critical when it contains personally identifiable information, non-public customer sales data, and InsightSUITE data containing customer specific information. Critical data is only stored on systems owned or administered by First Insight. Access to critical data is restricted via permissions based upon a given user's role; permissions are provided with only the minimal access necessary.

First Insight has developed an action plan to address breaches or potential breaches of confidentiality. When a confidentiality incident is reported, First Insight will first close any active breach and then conduct an investigation to determine the root cause of the incident.

This investigation will cover:

Upon completion of the investigation, First Insight will inform any customers affected by the incident with a detailed description of the incident and results of the associated root cause analysis.

Your Responsibility Related to Confidentiality

First Insight's services were designed with the assumption that certain controls would be implemented by the customer and/or end users. These controls should be in operation by the customer and/or end users to complement First Insight's controls. Recommended controls are for a customer or end user to:

  1. Define their own data classification.
  2. Maintain the confidentiality of their own data.
  3. Only transmit confidential data through approved and secure means.
  4. Report any breach or potential breach of confidentiality to their own defined points of escalation and First Insight, as appropriate.
