Wiseman Data Privacy Keeping Data Privacy Simple
There are a lot of myths about data privacy (or data protection) but at heart it’s really quite simple. It’s about using personal data fairly, being honest and open about what you’re doing with it, keeping it safe, and respecting people’s privacy. In practice that means knowing exactly what data your business holds, where and why, and putting measures in place to maintain its security, accuracy and quality. It means taking care about who uses that data and how, and giving your customers and employees clear information so they know what you’re doing and can make meaningful choices about their personal data. It means being in control of your data…and being able to show that you’re in control of it. Now, read that paragraph again, substituting another business asset - ‘cash’, ‘stock’, or ‘hardware’, maybe - for ‘data’ and you’ll be nodding along in agreement because it’s simply good business practice. Personal data is one of your business’ most valuable assets, so why would you treat it any differently?
