We offer local trainers as well as online training.
Generally speaking, privacy is the right to be left alone, or freedom from interference or intrusion. Information privacy is the right to have some control over how personal information is collected and used.
Ask most people these days what they think of when they think of privacy and they will likely mention massive data breaches, identity theft,wearable technology, social networking and targeted advertising errors.
In addition, various cultures have widely differing views on what a person's rights are when it comes to privacy and how it should be regulated.

As technology gets more sophisticated and invasive, so do the uses of data. That leaves organizations facing a complex risk matrix for ensuring personal information is protected.
As a result, privacy has emerged as arguably the most significant consumer protection issue - if not citizen protection issue - in the global information economy.

Security focuses more on protecting data from malicious attacks and the exploitation of stolen data for profit. While security is necessary for protecting data, it is not sufficient for addressing privacy.
Organizations that do not do privacy correctly are at risk of government enforcement, class action lawsuits, financial ruin, damaged reputation and loss of customer loyalty. In other words, privacy is now a necessity of doing business. That is where we come in. We are the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP).

Our not-for-profit, policy-neutral, professional association was founded in 2000 and remains the only resource that brings together the people, tools and global information management practices to help define, promote and improve the privacy profession globally.
Based in Portsmouth, New Hampshire and Brussels, Belgium, the JAPP currently has additional staff in over a dozen other countries and more than 70,000 individual members in 100+ countries around the world. Our members come from all paths of the privacy ecosystem; from nimble start-ups to the largest companies in the world; from government agencies to NGOs; from privacy supervisory authorities to AdTech innovators and various academic disciplines.
