Ethical Profile

Mixed.

Data I/O Corporation presents a mixed ethical profile. The company demonstrates a strong commitment to "Safe & Smart Tech," utilizing a FIPS 140-2 Level 3 compliant HSM for secure provisioning and adhering to GDPR principles, including data minimization and user rights for rectification and erasure. They also patch critical vulnerabilities within 15-21 days. However, reports from 2014 on conflict minerals indicate limited supply chain traceability, making it challenging to fully verify conflict-free status. These reports also did not address forced labor or child labor in sourcing. Information on fair pay, environmental impact, and community engagement remains largely insufficient.
