What is Data Privacy?
Data privacy focuses on the safeguarding of personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. It encompasses the rights of individuals to control how their data is collected, processed, and shared by organizations while balancing the need for organizations to collect and use that data responsibly.
Zaviant’s thorough approach to data privacy ensures organizations have the proper frameworks, policies, and procedures in place to collect and manage user data while preventing costly breaches and regulatory enforcement activities.
Why is Data Privacy Important?
Strong data privacy practices are essential in today’s highly-connected digital world, where vast amounts of sensitive information are generated and exchanged by the second. With proper measures in place, however, the likelihood of experiencing a data breach is greatly reduced.
Additionally, data privacy builds trust between organizations and consumers. With malicious activity more common than ever, consumers want to know that companies are handling their personal information responsibly.
Finally, staying compliant with all necessary regulations and building a strong body of evidence helps organizations align with best practices while avoiding costly regulatory enforcement activities and fines.
