Currently, data privacy is a key compliance issue that is receiving increasing attention from courts, legislatures and customers. Ask yourself:
1. Do you know what personal data you collect, why you collect it and how the data is used or shared?
2. Is your privacy policy complete, clear and accurate?
3. Do you have a process for handling data breaches?
If your association or its members fall under the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation or the upcoming state-level regulations in the US, you may be subject to additional obligations. Remember, data privacy has implications for both legal compliance and your business success.
