How to write a global privacy statement

Privacy statements - how can one be written that applies globally? That seems like an impossible, even hopeless, challenge. Laws change regularly, even within countries and groupings like the EU. Rules differ. There are no “international” laws making data privacy a commonly regulated matter.

This episode presents an approach to a comprehensive data privacy statement that can be used globally. Consider the essential elements. Express principles and practices that encompass the diversity of regulation while respecting commonly accepted rights of individuals whose personal information will be collected, processed, stored, and otherwise used when an organization operates cross-border. Using an effective example for reference, this episode can serve as a checklist for adopting a state-of-the-art global personal data privacy statement.
