Good privacy is good for business.

Your business is responsible for protecting the personal information you have collected.

Whether a privacy breach affects one person or 1,000 people, you need to report it if there is a real risk of significant harm resulting from the breach.

Dealing with breaches transparently is not just about following the law. It sends a message to your customers and clients, staff, or others that even during challenging times, you take their interests to heart.
