Kintone Achieves HIPAA Compliance, Strengthening Data Security and Trust for Regulated Industries

Kintone—a customizable digital workplace platform built for teamwork—has officially achieved compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). This milestone reflects Kintone’s ongoing commitment to providing secure, trusted tools for teams managing sensitive health and business data across highly regulated industries.

HIPAA establishes national standards for the protection of health information, requiring strict administrative, physical, and technical safeguards for handling sensitive data. With HIPAA compliance in place, organizations in healthcare, education, and government can now confidently process and store protected health information (PHI) in Kintone after signing a Business Associate Agreement (BAA).

“Data protection is more than a regulatory requirement; it’s a fundamental commitment to our customers. Achieving HIPAA compliance showcases our unwavering dedication to equipping organizations that handle sensitive information with the assurance that their data remains safe and secure on Kintone,” said Yu Tanabe, COO of Kintone.

HIPAA compliance builds on Kintone’s existing data protection credentials, including its SOC 2 Type II compliance and ISO/IEC 27001 certification. These achievements reinforce Kintone’s broader strategy to support secure collaboration through strong infrastructure, thoughtful design, and ongoing transparency. Kintone continues to expand its platform to serve teams across sectors who need flexible, no-code solutions without compromising data privacy.
