guidance and governance between Cloud Service 
Providers and Cloud Service Customers to ensure safe

Implementation of the Codes of Conduct 
 The Codes of Conduct are developed and maintained 
by a legal entity (SWIPO AISBL). This legal entity
operates without interference from the European Commission and 
consists of Cloud Service Providers (CSP) and Cloud 
Service Customers (CSC). Both providers and customers are part of the board that is responsible for the 
maintenance and further development of the codes and the supportive documents. Any organization can 
become a member to express adherence to the codes. 
The members are bound to the governance and 
statutes from the legal entity.
