Third Party Risk Management Portal

Third Party Privacy, Security & Risk Management Portal

Carnival Corporation is supporting the planning, automation and management of relationships with third parties. In addition, the portal stores contracts for existing third parties and operates as a portal for new third parties to be assessed, evaluated and classified based on risk profile.

Third Party Privacy, Security & Risk Management Portal is not a completely self servicing resource and not currently open to the public at this time. Third party business owners will be responsible for registering and initiating enrollment in Third Party Privacy, Security & Risk Management process. Third parties are required to be already engaged in our sourcing, procurement, and other business pillars prior to enrollment in the Third Party Privacy, Security & Risk Management Portal.

Third Party Risk Management Criteria

All third parties meeting one or more of the criteria below must be successfully engaged through our Third Party Risk Management Program:

  1. Does the third party (or their sub processors) process personal data (frequently known as PII) or Carnival confidential information? 
  2. Does the third party (or their sub processors) require connectivity or access to Carnival network or applications?
  3. Does the third party (or their sub processors) utilize cloud-based services?

Key Definitions:

  1. "Sub processor" is another company used by the vendor to deliver services
  2. "Process" is collect, use, store, share, receive
  3. "Personal data" is the gamut of information from first and last name to passport number to IP address.

Contractual Requirements

Data Privacy and Security Addendum (DPSA) requirements:

The Data Privacy and Security Addendum (DPSA) is part of the contract document that forms the contractual relationship between controller and processor for data protection. It is also used for joint controller engagements. Carnival Corporation uses this document globally, so there are optional sections that are required for European contracts.

  1. Processes personal data (frequently known as PII) or Carnival confidential information
  2. Requires connectivity or access to Carnival network or applications
  3. Utilizes cloud-based services (must comply with the Cloud Computing policy)

The DPSA replaces the CPIP, which was used until August 1, 2019.
