Most Organizations Not Ready for New Privacy Regulations

An Internet Society report finds that most organizations do not comply with existing global privacy regulations and are not ready for additional regulations that are going into effect in 2020.

The “Are Organizations Ready for New Privacy Regulations?” report revealed that many organizations’ privacy statements fail to meet common privacy principles outlined in GDPR, CCPA, PIPEDA, including the user’s right to request information, to understand how their data is being shared with third parties and the ability of that information to be deleted upon request. Organizations also have a duty to notify users of their rights in an easily understandable matter.
