Privacy Ref Provides Helpful Tips to Prepare for New Privacy Laws

DELRAY BEACH, Fla., Dec. 23, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- A true privacy professional will tell you that a privacy program doesn't have a beginning or an ending. Data privacy is an ever-evolving discipline, where liabilities and risks are incessant. New laws and amendments are continuously being introduced in the effort to improve personal data protection. Privacy officers spend countless hours researching to maintain best practices in their privacy program and stay in line with the mission, policies and procedures of the company. In an effort to better help you prepare for new privacy laws we have put together some helpful tips to consider based on some of our past experiences (found in actual Privacy Ref case studies http://privacyref.com/category_resource/case-studies/).

• Complete an assessment of potential risks to determine how well your company is postured to address those risks.
• Find the right guide for the journey. Privacy laws are perpetually changing so you want reliable resources for fact checking and real-time information. A large professional association of U.S. federal enterprise risk managers appreciate the fact that Privacy Ref's partnership approach ensures that our services can scale with their growth, guided by the checklist we mapped out following their assessment. http://privacyref.com/category_resource/case-studies/
• Stick to trusted, proven frameworks, then modify them to meet your unique needs.
• Identify the most important privacy needs to address at your particular point on the privacy and corporate spectrum.
• A global software company thought that identifying and contracting a Data Protection Officer might be in their best interest. As a DPO or as a consultant to your company Privacy Ref can assist with time consuming activities like the following and more:
• Building or improving privacy policies and practices
