13.2 Data privacy
13.2.1 Aggregated data
Security of aggregated data shall be the responsibility of the collector. Data collectors and data storage operators shall comply with all personal privacy regulations and rules governing the collection, storage and dissemination of personal data. Personal data collected by or incident to the reading of an RFID tag shall be accorded the same protection and security as personal data collected by any other means.
13.2.2 Company proprietary data
Security of product packaging data collected from or incident to the reading of a product packaging RFID tag is the responsibility of the company collecting the data. Companies wishing to restrict the collection of company proprietary data from product RFID tags shall utilize appropriate forms of data security. As security/protection of tag data can be compromised, use of RFID product packaging tags to carry sensitive, classified or proprietary data should be limited.
14 Interoperability, compatibility and non-interference with other RF systems
All RFID systems including tags, interrogators and readers shall operate on a strict non-interference basis with all other RF systems operating in the same spectrum. All RFID systems including tags, interrogators and readers claiming conformance with this international Standard shall be interoperable and compatible at the specific frequency designed.
