Identity Cloud easily integrates into your identity infrastructure
Centralizing consumer identity management
Identity Cloud easily integrates into your identity infrastructure, giving your organization a central and flexible solution for managing high volumes of customer user identities. Identity Cloud’s highly flexible schemas can accommodate the needs of your developers and marketing teams. Identity Cloud can act as the central master data management (MDM) for your organization or readily integrate with preexisting data management, sales, and marketing automation systems.
Delivering reliable, compliant consumer experiences
Customer onboarding needs to be possible anytime, all the time. Identity Cloud offers unparalleled uptimes, and its global data footprint and intelligent scaling are designed to ensure that sudden increases in traffic will not result in decreased performance. Our flexible data schemas allow you to share your customers’ data with other systems and marketing automation platforms in adherence with data protection regulations.
Collecting consumer data is easy
Collecting consumer data is easy
Doing so in the new age of global privacy regulations is significantly more challenging. The EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), Canadian Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), and other regional consumer data regulations place the onus firmly on brands to track and understand the data they collect and to provide privacy management options directly to consumers.
Identity Cloud allows progressive profile building and customer-facing consent and preference management, turning these new regulations into opportunities to build trusted relationships with your customers that ultimately result in higher brand loyalty and better business.
