Obfuscation of user profiles in ConnectionsExpert is controlled by the license key. This enables us to guarantee that country- or region-specific data protection regulations (e.g. GDPR) can be fulfilled from the beginning.
Enable or Disable Obfuscation in ConnectionsExpert
In general it is possible to deactivate or activate obfuscation at a later point in time. In this case, historical data is processed as follows:
- Obfuscation is enabled: Obfuscation is also applied to historical data in the ConnectionsExpert data warehouse.
- Obfuscation is disabled: After deactivation, data can also be identified historically for specific users.
Please visit the panagenda Help Center support.panagenda.com if you need to turn obfuscation on or off in your panagenda ConnectionsExpert environment.
What happens, if an IBM Connections user is deleted? ("Right to be forgotten")
If IBM Connections users are deleted from the underlying database, all fields with personally identifiable information will not be available in ConnectionsExpert, too. However, this user's activity data will remain in the ConnectionsExpert data warehouse, since otherwise historical usage data would be distorted.
Regardless of the obfuscation settings, the stored data can no longer be associated with the deleted IBM Connections user.
