This information is not limited to a person's name, address, and contact details, for example a person's IP address, phone IMEI number, gender, and location at a particular time could all be personally identifiable information. Organizations are responsible for ensuring the privacy of PII wherever it is stored, including in back-ups, locally stored downloads, and data stored in development environments.
