Privacy Controls

Swarm’s privacy controls are designed to provide comprehensive data governance, ensuring data security, regulatory compliance, and operational transparency. These controls are categorized into four key types:

Control Type	Function	Example
Geographic	Manages data location to comply with jurisdictional and regulatory requirements.	Ensures EU data stays in the EU, addressing GDPR compliance.
Access	Controls permissions to restrict who can view or modify data.	Implements role-based access, granting permissions based on user roles or attributes.
Usage	Enforces data handling rules to limit operations performed on sensitive data.	Supports read-only access for sensitive datasets to prevent unauthorized modifications.
Audit	Tracks and logs activities to ensure accountability and traceability.	Generates detailed logs of data access and usage for compliance audits and security investigations.
