Last Friday, Google won an auction(拍卖；竞标) to acquire(收购；获得) a huge amount of Spirit Airlines data. The data doesn’t include personal information or customer data, but instead nearly covers the airline's entire employment(雇佣；雇用关系) and workplace(工作场所) record. To ensure that no individual can be identified in the dataset(数据集), Google agreed to use a court-appointed(法院指定的) ombudsman(监察员；投诉专员) to oversee(监督；监管) a process to strip(剥离；去除) any personally identifying information (PII)(个人身份信息) from the data before it’s transferred to Google. Under the deal(根据协议条款), Google agreed to maintain the data in this de-identified(去标识化的；匿名化的) form and to never intentionally(故意地；蓄意地) re-identify(重新识别身份) the data. And if Google sells access to the data, third parties(第三方) would supposedly(据称；推定地) be bound by(受……约束) the same terms(条款；条件).
