#data-governance

Implement robust data governance for user privacy compliance. Data classification: 1. Public: can be shared freely (marketing content). 2. Internal: company confidential information. 3. Personal: user-identifiable information (PII). 4. Sensitive: payment data, health records, requiring encryption. Privacy compliance framework: 1. Data minimization: collect only necessary information. 2. Purpose limitation: use data only for stated purposes. 3. Consent management: clear opt-in/opt-out mechanisms. 4. Right to erasure: ability to delete user data. 5. Data portability: export user data on request. Technical implementation: 1. Encryption at rest and in transit. 2. Access controls: role-based permissions. 3. Audit logging: track data access and modifications. 4. Anonymization: remove identifiers for analytics. 5. Retention policies: automatic deletion of old data. Tools: OneTrust for consent management, Privacera for data discovery. Regular audits: quarterly privacy impact assessments, annual security reviews.
