Data privacy is so much more than legal compliance! We believe legal compliance should be the result of a successful privacy program, not the goal. Moreover, companies should use personal data to support broader strategic objectives. How to build an understanding of privacy at your company’s cultural level? How to get the necessary resources for your privacy program? In this webinar, we explore how creating a culture of privacy within your organization can make it become a top priority and help building an efficient privacy program.

6. 6
The Effects of a Culture of Privacy are seen in a Strong Privacy Program
● Helps Meet Regulatory Compliance Obligations
○ Fines for non-compliance; compliance with one framework will not always satisfy for others
● Improves Optics
○ More opportunities to build or lose trust with brand (data can be traded for trust)
● Increases Employee Confidence / Reduces Risk
○ Providing employees with confidence to raise complaints without retaliation; reduce suits
○ Making employees aware of their rights and security of their data
● Increases Cross-Functional Collaboration
○ Communication has increased between Legal, HR, and Technology Departments regarding
privacy matters (e.g., understanding automated employment decisions, increased training
with responding to complaints/requests)
● Improves Allocation of In-House Resources
○ Need to reassess data flows, consult outside counsel, seek new technical solutions,
implement new controls, regularly assess the effectiveness of the controls, and create new
roles; improve data quality, reduces
● Improves Business Strategy (Corporate Governance)
○ Increased need to establish a privacy stakeholder and consider privacy not as a cost but as
core business strategy
● Global Regulatory Environment (Interoperability)

7. 7
What Privacy Programs Say About Privacy Culture
● Compliance Should Not be the End Goal of the Program
○ With the sole goal of regulatory compliance, privacy will be an inhibiting factor in the
organization’s to drive strategic decisions; privacy does not have to affect the bottom-line
○ Consider creating a program with a true “floor” rather than a privacy patchwork
○ If resources are thin, consider a base framework and evaluate the organization’s appetite for risk
○ Does your privacy notice tell your organization’s story?
● What Personal Information is Collected and Processed throughout the organization?
○ How is PI Collected?
○ How is PI Retained?
○ Where is PI Transferred?
○ How is PI Accessed?
● Considerations
○ The strength of the administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect against
collection, use, an disclosure throughout the organization

8. 8
From a Privacy Program to a Privacy Culture
● Embed a Privacy Program into all aspects of the organization (default is a Privacy Culture)
● Make the Privacy Program resilient (protect proprietary information via compliance)
● Make the Program a group effort beyond the Privacy Team (talk about it)
● Don’t Impose, ask for help/feedback: be a resource for the organization, don’t be afraid to
adapt the program based on received feed (frame it as trying to achieve strategic goals)
● Build a Privacy team or Privacy Office full of privacy advocates and good communicators
● Find Privacy Champions across the organization. Recognise their inputs and work.
● Be creative in your communication strategy: trainings should be useful and interesting,
organize privacy events, engage the audience, create friendly materials.

9. 9
Create a Privacy Team
● The team should be aligned with the organization’s objectives and goals
● Identify a sponsor / champion to liaise with other teams
● Consider cadence of meetings and who else should be invited
● Funding will not be hard if there is a culture of privacy

10. 10
Privacy Tech Solutions
● Consent Tools
● Privacy Enhancing Technologies
● Data Inventories
● Risk Assessments
● Assurance: Certifications, validations, and seals communicate trust to customers and consumers but
also allow for increased business (trade)
Wide Range of Solutions to incorporate

How Personal Data Supports Other Business Objectives
● Privacy is not only a compliance/risk issue.
● Innovate with Privacy!
○ We don’t want Privacy to be the “No” in moving the organization’s strategic goals
● Trust! Privacy as a business driver and competitive differentiator. Privacy as a core element of
companies/brands.
● Consider the effects of losing proprietary information (FTC - algorithm disgorgement)
●
● Human error is number one reason for security breaches. Mature and well implemented privacy
program + well established privacy culture reduces this risk preventing reputational, operational and
financial losses.
