Now that you understand some of the laws to which you must comply, you may be thinking: “But I have a catalog to run! I can’t be worrying about this stuff. I need to assign someone to handle these privacy issues.”
According to the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP), chief privacy officers generally are responsible for the following tasks:
- ensuring that their companies are in compliance with all necessary state and federal privacy regulations;
- offering guidelines to corporate executives on how to properly collect, store and handle customer data; and
- ensuring that their companies take the necessary steps to safeguard consumer privacy, thereby avoiding costly and embarrassing privacy breaches.
