As AI document processing becomes increasingly common, so does the importance of compliance. Compliance refers to the adherence to legal and regulatory requirements in processing documents. Compliance enables businesses to handle sensitive information. There are legal processes that govern the processing of documents. Organizations that process documents must also adhere to industry-specific standards and best practices. Base64.ai is a compliant document processing AI company.
GDPR
One of the most critical areas of compliance in AI document processing is data privacy. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a comprehensive privacy law that applies to the processing of personal data in the European Union. The GDPR has strict requirements for obtaining consent for processing personal data, providing transparency in data processing, and protecting personal data from unauthorized access or use. Organizations that fail to comply with the GDPR can face fines of up to €20 million or 4% of their global annual revenue, whichever is higher. Base64.ai is GDPR-compliant.
Data Security
Another critical area of compliance in AI document processing is data security. Organizations must ensure that documents are protected from unauthorized access, alteration, or deletion. They must also implement measures to prevent data breaches and detect and respond to security incidents quickly. Failure to comply with data security regulations can result in significant legal and financial consequences, as well as damage to a company’s reputation. Base64.ai runs in the cloud and can also be deployed in the customer’s on-premises data centers. Our AI does not need to store customer data, including documents and their extracted data.
HIPAA
In addition to data privacy and security, compliance in document processing AI also includes adherence to industry-specific standards and best practices. Base64.ai processes medical documents, so it must comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), which sets standards for protecting the privacy and security of protected health information. Base64.ai is HIPAA-compliant.
SOC 2
SOC 2 is a voluntary compliance standard for service organizations, developed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA), that specifies how organizations should manage customer data. The standard is based on the following Trust Services Criteria: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. Base64.ai is SOC 2 Type 1 and 2 compliant.
Adhering to legal and regulatory requirements, protecting sensitive information, and follow industry-specific standards and best practices are all important to Base64.ai. By prioritizing compliance, we can ensure that we operate ethically, protect sensitive information, and avoid costly mistakes.
