4 Ways GoFormz Prioritizes Data Privacy

Your data is secure with GoFormz

In an era where data is often referred to as the new gold, businesses are becoming increasingly concerned about the safety and security of their sensitive information. Whether it's collecting crucial patient details through a medical intake form or safeguarding specific scopes of work from personnel without clearance, GoFormz provides multiple avenues to uphold data privacy. Here are four ways in which GoFormz surpasses expectations to prioritize and protect your invaluable data.

End-to-End Encryption

At GoFormz, data security isn't just a feature; it's a commitment. The platform employs end-to-end encryption to shield your information from any unauthorized access. This means that from the moment you input data into a form to its transmission and storage, every step is encrypted. It's like having a secure vault for your data, ensuring that only those with the proper authorization can access and decipher it. This level of encryption provides users with the peace of mind that their confidential information remains confidential throughout its journey within the platform.

Granular User Permissions

GoFormz understands that not all users need access to the same data. To address this, the platform offers granular user permissions that allow administrators the power to control who can view, edit, or delete specific forms or data sets. Whether you're managing a team of field technicians or collaborating with external partners, GoFormz allows you to tailor access levels, ensuring that only authorized individuals can interact with sensitive information. 

This feature not only enhances security but also provides organizations with the flexibility needed to accommodate diverse workflows while maintaining a robust level of control over their data.

Adherence to Global Standards

GoFormz adheres to global privacy regulations, including GDPR and HIPAA, ensuring that your data is handled with the utmost care and compliance. By aligning with these international standards, GoFormz demonstrates our commitment to staying at the forefront of data privacy. Users can trust that their information is being managed by the highest industry standards, giving users the confidence to fully leverage the capabilities of the platform without compromising on security. 

For example, individuals in the healthcare industry often utilize HIPAA-compliant forms with GoFormz. These forms serve the dual purpose of safeguarding patient data privacy and enabling healthcare providers to eliminate paper trails, all while upholding the standards of patient data protection.

E-SIGN Act Compliance

Many digital form solutions only offer basic signature capabilities, however, with GoFormz, your data matters to us which is why we offer E-SIGN Act-compliant electronic signatures. The Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN Act) was passed in 2000 and outlines requirements for an electronic signature to be considered valid under United States law. Under the E-SIGN Act, an eSignature solution must: 

  • Demonstrate an individual’s consent and intent to sign electronically

  • Attribute signatures to a specific, verified signer

  • Attach or clearly associate an electronic signature with the record being signed

  • Maintain records of the signed document for all parties

Utilizing electronic signatures empowers your business to gather legally binding contracts and documents in a digital format. For example, an HR representative can send a hiring contract to a new employee, who can then fill it out and complete it digitally. In cases where a legally binding signature is necessary, the HR representative can have confidence that the digital document meets the required legal standards.

Important Note: It is important to note that state, county, and international laws may require additional steps when capturing a compliant electronic signature. Always check local laws before continuing with an eSign solution. 

With GoFormz, you're not just managing data; you're ensuring its security in an ever-evolving digital landscape.
