What is a data protection policy?

A data protection policy is an internal document that serves as the core of an organisation’s data protection compliance practices. Taking the GDPR as the gold standard for data protection this policy can be used internationally as part of any data protection best practice. It is a statement of what you do when it comes to data protection.

A data protection policy is important because it helps the organisation to protection personal information, comply with data protection laws and regulations, build trust and avoid fines and penalties.
