Privacy by Design

Companies need to abide by a growing number of privacy regulations. Failure to do so can result in significant fines, reduce customer trust, impede sales, and narrow investment opportunities. To comply with these regulations, products must adhere to effective data protection practices to prevent unintended consequences from occurring.

Product teams must become adept at embedding data protection considerations into their development processes. A Privacy by Design approach can help proactively address privacy at the outset of their project and improve the ability to protect personal data. During this session we will explore the impacts design has on privacy, review the principles of Privacy by Design, and show how product teams can consider these principles as part of development. It will provide a starting point for your product team to consider data protection within your organization’s development processes. This will reduce the inherent risks for your company. Plus it will lead to products your customers will want to use and increasingly trust with personal data.
