FREQUENTLY ASKED

What procurement reviewers ask before signing.

In the European Economic Area (EEA) by default. Norwegian and EEA infrastructure providers only. Customer-directed transfers outside the EEA are supported via Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).

30 days from a verified erasure request, with audit trail preserved. Hard deletion is written into the master service agreement.

YPAI provides healthcare-specific consent language and data handling. We do not replace the customer BAA chain or covered-entity obligations. We sign a BAA-fit clause where the engagement scope requires it.

Documented and available upon formal request as part of the procurement workflow. Sub-processor transparency is one of the 7 audit artifacts shipped per project.

YPAI ships a standardized DPA covering GDPR Article 28 terms. Customer DPAs are accepted with redlining where the engagement scope makes it operationally feasible.

In line with GDPR Article 33: 72 hours from awareness, with the audit trail entry timestamped from the same moment.

A documented evidence package with every engagement: GDPR Article 28 DPA ready for countersignature, per-contributor consent records, DSR workflow documentation, a 30-day erasure SLA in the master service agreement, SCCs for customer-directed transfers outside the EEA, and EU AI Act Article 10 alignment. The Commitments and Controls panel above lists each artifact.
