MORRIS PLAINS, N.J., April 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Qforma, the leading provider of advanced analytics and launch optimization for the health sciences industry has been awarded EuroPriSe certification for services provided by Qforma's Mederi.

The European Privacy Seal  (EuroPriSe) is issued and recertified by an independent third party. The Seal certifies that an IT product or service facilitates its use in compliance with European regulations on privacy and data security.

The EuroPriSe certification procedure consists of a voluntary audit, evaluation of the product or service by accredited legal and technical experts and a validation of the evaluation report by an independent certification authority. Promoted by the EU Commission the EuroPriSe certification scheme was established in 2007 by a consortium of several European Data Protection Authorities, led by the Independent Centre for Privacy Protection Schleswig-Holstein (ICPP/ULD), Germany.

"In a nutshell, Qforma's Mederi AG only processes publically available personal data," said Sebastian Meissner, Head of the EuroPriSe Certification Authority. "This is one important reason why we awarded CrowdLink™ from Qforma with the European Privacy Seal, by the way, being one of the first IT based services regarding big data to be labelled the seal."

"Privacy compliance is one of the challenges of IT management. The rapid development, deployment and integration of IT technologies into business and consumer-level processes are increasingly putting data at risk," said Kilian Weiss, CEO of Qforma.

"Qforma is proud to be awarded the EuroPriSe seal as a result of our ongoing commitment to the privacy and security of our solutions. Our official certification dramatically reduces compliance risk for our clients"
