Fivetran Public Policy Principles

01
People Come First

People should be able to know how their data is used and to access or delete it, and everyone who handles that data should protect it.

02
Your Data, Your Choice

Data should stay in the control of those who create it and rely on it, not the systems that store it.

03
Open by Default

Data shouldn’t be trapped in closed formats or systems.

04
Trusted Data Is the Foundation

Reliable, well-governed data is what makes AI and every other technology accountable.

05
Rules That Work for Everyone

Privacy and data rules should protect people everywhere without creating costs that only the largest companies can afford.
