Confidentiality


All full-time and external employees of United States Accreditation Inc., members of United States Accreditation Inc. committees as well as all other persons that obtain knowledge of accreditation cases or receive other information as a result of their roles, are required to treat this information in confidence.

Confidentiality

These types of obligations are either directly set out in employment contracts, by-laws, procedure descriptions, or may be included in separate confidentiality agreements in special cases. The confidentiality obligation may be removed in special cases with the agreement of the conformity assessment bodies.

Such an agreement is not required if United States Accreditation Inc. is required to provide information by law, and the affected party has been informed in this regard. In this case, the affected contract partner will be notified of the provision of such information.

Members of United States Accreditation Inc. committees may be excluded from the transfer of certain information if this breaches the conditions of DIN EN ISO/IEC 17011 (e.g. in the case of potential conflicts of interest).
