Does your job require confidentiality?

[missmis99]

Yes. I work in education so FERPA is King.

[agnes]

Yes.

Did that restriction include not posting that you did work on his wedding on a public message board, by any chance?

I have broken no confidentiality by saying what I did, when I did. 😁 What I have said is about all I can say, however.

Me too! The stories I could tell, if I could tell them....

[angnshaun]

Yes, im responsible for setting up all the Cell phone accounts for the company. I work for Madison Square Garden... Ive already had people ask me for Jim Dolan and Mark Messiers phone #! lol

[starlily]

To a slight degree, mostly regarding internal office policies. I'm a lawyer but I work "for the People," so most of what I do is public record.

[sunshine608]

Yes- HIPPA and FERPA.

[dev22]

Yup. We handle lots of financial information for people and corporations, plus most deals we do are hush hush.

[who22]

Its more like we can't say stuff until it goes public because sometimes deals fall through.

[psyck]

Yes, it does.

[LLYS]

Maintaining confidentiality is part of my job--- I know far too much about some people.

[rex]

Yes. I can't even give my actual job title without breaking confidentiality. the answer I gave in yesterdays post is the only one I'm legally allowed to give.

[MrsManners]

I manage people. Outside of client lists and company pricing info, most of the privacy stuff relates to employee performance, individual employee compensation, hiring/firing, etc. However, I report to the VP and President and they blab everything (to other managers, to one of them's brother who I manage, to the other reps who drink or golf with them) so there's no true privacy to be had.

[kelly072206]

To the extreme since the services we are offering are to people who have already been involved in a security breach or had identity theft issues.

[mrsd2006]

yes

[orangeblossom]

Yes.

[curbsideprophet]

Yes

To a point.

I am fascinated by confidentiality agreements I sign for some freelance work.

This.

[Deleted]

Not really...

[jennipea382]

I work at a bank so, yes. I can easily get a lot of information about someone by logging into the computer program.

ETA: I also work at a clothing store and the only thing I can't really do is talk about how much money we're making. I can't think of much else I absolutely can't talk about.

[Rachael070707]

Yes but not as strict as the Fortune 100 company I worked for is.

DH also has high government clearance so he obviously is very limited in what he can divulge.

[Nonny]

Yes. There have been some leaks to the media lately and so there have been regular reminders to keep your trap shut.

Also, I'm totally laughing at a 3 year non-compete clause for the pretzel place. I'm assuming you were a cashier since it was HS (I did read that right didn't I)? There is no way that could be enforceable.

[Deleted]

Well, every single new hire at my company signs a confidentiality agreement. We all handle a degree of personal information and company intellectual property.

I also work in HR, so there's that. Although my day to day doesn't require much confidentiality (training) I do have to be careful about what I repeat/don't repeat.

[interro]

Yes. And how funny about the pretzel place!! Don't fuck with Auntie Anne's family recipes!

[emyinpink]

yep. can't talk about stuff until it's released.

[cowboyjoe]

Yes.

I haven't had a job that hasn't required it since high school.

[alleinesein]

Yes to an extent. We cannot discuss our guidelines/rules for what we do and we cant really discuss what we have in the lab. I can be vague about some stuff; I did get to see one of the rarest natural color diamonds in the world last week but I cant divulge its details (color, size, etc).

Anything that is on display in the museum/lobby is fair game since it is usually on the website.

[bronxgirl]

i work in a psychiatric hospital, so as far as patient information, absolutely. As far as other stuff, not so much.
