Data Protection and Privacy Compliance

Data Protection and Privacy Compliance refers to the legal obligations organizations have to safeguard personal information and ensure it is handled responsibly. This includes collecting, using, storing, and sharing data in ways that respect individuals' privacy rights. Regulations, like the GDPR in Europe, set standards for consent, transparency, and security measures. Compliance means implementing practices that protect personal data from misuse or unauthorized access while allowing individuals to exercise control over their information. Non-compliance can lead to significant legal penalties and damage to trust between organizations and their customers.
