# Data Privacy

{% hint style="danger" %}
Sentinel is [**HIPAA**](https://www.cdc.gov/phlp/publications/topic/hipaa.html#:~:text=The%20Health%20Insurance%20Portability%20and,the%20patient's%20consent%20or%20knowledge.) and [**FERPA**](https://www2.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/fpco/ferpa/index.html) compliant and DOES NOT transmit or store PII/ PCI, Health, Insurance, Academic, or Financial related information.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

### Data Encryption&#x20;

All data that customers store with the OCI data services (Block Volumes including Boot Volumes, Object Storage, and File Storage) is protected by encryption keys that are securely stored and controlled by Oracle.

### Customer Compartments&#x20;

OCI gives you the ability to create compartments under your initial root compartment (or tenancy). Your administrators can plan and create compartments in your tenancy to enable you to organize cloud resources (for example, block volumes and compute instances) and the data that they contain so that only specific groups can access them. These features can help you organize and isolate your cloud resources in a way that aligns with your data management goals of enforcing the purpose limitation of any personal information to be processed. For example, an enterprise could create one compartment for their human resources department and another compartment for the finance department. Doing so would effectively separate the cloud resources, which in turn would help keep separate the data, for the two departments.&#x20;

For more information see [Managing Compartments](https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Identity/Tasks/managingcompartments.htm)

### Virtual Cloud Networks&#x20;

Sentinel SAAS customers can set up virtual cloud networks (VCNs) to allow communication with their attached compute instance resources. These VCNs contain one or more subnets, which are a unit of configuration within a VCN. A subnet can be designated as public (default) or private. Private subnets preclude any compute instance attached to them from having a public IP address. Therefore, those compute instances are not reachable from the internet. All compute instances within the same subnet use the same route table and security lists, which might act as a type of purpose limitation among similar compute instance resources.

### Customer Data&#x20;

**Customer Identification Data** - The contact and related information needed to operate your Sentinel account and bill you for services. The use of any personal information that Sentinel gathers from you for purposes of account management is private and confidential.

**Application Data** -  The data that you store on Sentinel, such as files, documents, and databases. Your data might include information which is required for managing user accounts, but Sentinel does not have insight into the contents of this data, how you collect or use it, or whether it’s subject to any specific data privacy regulations.&#x20;
