Configure a data privacy policy to specify which data privacy techniques are used
when anonymizing your data.

## Vorbereitungen

The data privacy configuration defines tables, sys_user and other, and columns to the
de-identified, depending on the use case and specifies parameterized types of the
techniques to be used while de-identifying data.  
Hinweis:  
To complete a privacy configuration, you must first configure a data privacy technique configuration. See [Create a data privacy technique configuration](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/bkmTWTXCEtrmYWPPKe9d7g "Create a data privacy technique configuration to customize how data privacy anonymizes your data.") for more information.

Role required: data_privacy_admin and admin

## Prozedur

1. Elevate to the data_privacy_admin role.  
   For details on role elevation, see [Elevate to a privileged
   role](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/QSMW4UNBg6bevZDKAPGT2Q "The base system admin can elevate to a privileged role to have access to the features of High Security Settings.").
2. Navigate to System SecurityData Privacy (Classic)Privacy Policy Configuration.
3. Select New.
4. In the Name field, enter a name for your privacy policy configuration.
5. In the Data Class field, select the data class to use with this policy.  
   Data privacy policies can only apply to classified data, for more information on data classification, see [Data
   classification](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/lTzMDApKb~I4lO2wqMzTBA "Group data by type, using pre-defined or user-defined data classifications. If you have an assigned data classification administrator or auditor role, you can administer different data classes or visually analyze the current state of different types of data within the instance.").  
   After selecting a data class, the Privacy Classified Field Techniques and Privacy Primary Reference Links lists display on the form.
6. **Wahlweise:** Select Apply to All Data in Class to apply anonymization to all data in the chosen data class.  
   If you don't select this field, your data privacy processor users can choose which users to anonymize when creating data privacy jobs. If you select this field, that option is not available.  
   * Apply when Cloning: This option becomes available. When selected, the privacy configuration executes during data privacy clone.
   * Application Order: A data privacy job for Postclone configuration with a higher Application Order might start before another job with lower order.  
     Wichtig:  
     Avoid creating multiple data privacy policies with the same Application Order, as the resultant processing order for those with the same order will be inconsistent.

7. **Wahlweise:** Select Supports Rollback to enable the ability to de-anonymize the data from a data privacy job.  
   See [Roll back a data privacy job](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/YbwNMFAfe2MJXb6WFtLTrg "Roll back a data privacy job on your non-production instance that uses anonymized data from your production instance to a state prior to de-identification of a data class or user job.") for more information.  
   After selecting Supports Rollback when creating a data privacy job, the option to roll back the job becomes available.
8. Select the Privacy Classified Field Techniques tab to display the Privacy Classified Field Techniques list.
9. Select an entry in the Table field to open the Privacy Technique Configuration field for each list entry.  
   The Privacy Classified Field Techniques list displays all the data to be anonymized in your selected data class. For each of these entries, you must select a privacy technique to apply.
10. Select a Privacy Technique Configuration to apply.  
    Wichtig:  
    If you aren't anonymizing an entry, select the DoNothing technique rather than leaving the entry empty. Policies with empty values in the Privacy Technique Configuration field can't execute when used in data privacy jobs.
11. Select Submit or Save to save the record.
