What is Privacy Management

The CDPA imposes a series of duties upon Data Controllers and Data Processors. They must be able to demonstrate compliance with various players:

This is a direct consequence of the accountability and privacy by design principles. This also means that Privacy Management is an ongoing process and must be kept up to date.

Privacy Management is all about systematically protecting personal data and privacy rights, but also about compliance with the CDPA and other relevant data privacy laws and regulations.

From policies and practices, to procedures and templates to safeguard sensitive data, from collecting and processing data to storage and disposal: Privacy Management covers a range of activities.

In our data-driven era, it is crucial for the further existence of companies, and of course: to maintain trust.

Many companies are investing in CDPA software to manage data in accordance with the law, but this option is not sufficient for establishing a robust Privacy Management. A CDPA software is not customized enough for every single, unique company, and requires human oversight and decision-making. To effectively manage privacy, in fact, you need to implement data government practices and strategies that exceed the possibilities of CDPA software.

The implementation of Privacy Management solutions starts with a CDPA Assessment. Subsequently, the findings and recommendations from the assessment will be further developed according to the company’s needs through our Privacy Management Activity plan (PMA plan).

This plan ensures that all the measures required by the CDPA are anchored in a structured and manageable manner into business operations, and that the necessary tools (policies, procedures, templates…) are delivered. The PMA plan ensures sound Privacy Management in your organization while taking into account all the applicable legal obligations. The following steps of the implementation focus on training staff and monitoring the effectiveness of all security measures. This way, Privacy Management and data privacy are guaranteed in the DNA of your organization.

The scope, depth, and content of the necessary measures are of course different for every organization, depending on services, business operations, industry, and region. Its costs are scalable and adaptable to your specific company’s needs. The costs vary from a monthly hour subscription to a fixed fee for a specific one-off activity (i.e. conducting a DPIA or a TIA).
