Fall 2022 SOC 2 Type 2 Privacy report now available

Your privacy considerations are at the core of our compliance work at Amazon Web Services (AWS), and we are focused on the protection of your content while using AWS services.

We are happy to announce that our Fall 2022 SOC 2 Type 2 Privacy report is now available. The report provides a third-party attestation of our system and the suitability of the design of our privacy controls. The SOC 2 Privacy Trust Service Criteria (TSC), developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), establishes the criteria for evaluating controls that relate to how personal information is collected, used, retained, disclosed, and disposed of. For more information about our privacy commitments supporting the SOC 2 Type 2 report, see the AWS Customer Agreement.

The scope of the Fall 2022 SOC 2 Type 2 Privacy report includes information about how we handle the content that you upload to AWS, and how that content is protected across the services and locations that are in scope for the latest AWS SOC reports. AWS customers can download the SOC 2 Type 2 Privacy report through AWS Artifact in the AWS Management Console.

As always, we value your feedback and questions. Feel free to reach out to the compliance team through the AWS Compliance Contact Us page. If you have feedback about this post, submit comments in the Comments section below.
