All organisations handle personal information. Some of that personal information can be a very valuable asset.
The way organisations handle personal information is a key business issue, and failure to handle it properly can create significant business risks.
There is not just the risk of a breach of law. There is also the risk that good customer or stakeholder relations are prejudiced and trust is reduced, with a commensurate reduction in the volume and nature of personal information individuals are willing to share. This section will assist you to understand the current legislative framework, so you can work within that framework to develop or update your privacy practices.
