Client confidentiality is the principle that an institution or individual should not reveal information about their clients to a third party without the consent of the client or a clear legal reason This concept, sometimes referred to as social systems of confidentiality, is outlined in numerous laws throughout many countriesThe access to a client's data as provided by the institution in question is usually limited to law enforcement agencies and requires some legal procedures to be accomplished prior to such action (eg: court order issued, etc) This applies to bank account information or medical record In some cases the data is by definition inaccessible to third parties and should never be revealed
