Countdown to Data Privacy Day 2023

By: Cybersecurity and Data Privacy Practice
World Data Privacy Day is an international event that occurs each year on January 28. This event is aimed at raising awareness and promoting best practices related to privacy and data protection. The date commemorates the Jan. 28, 1981 signing of Convention 108, the first legally binding international treaty dealing with privacy and data protection. The celebration of World Data Privacy Day encourages individuals and businesses to become more aware of the rights and responsibilities associated with data privacy.
Given the growing digital presence in the modern world, privacy and data protection are relevant to all businesses—no matter the size. The ever-changing data privacy legal landscape influences the way we think about, collect, use and safeguard data. Few, if any, areas of the law have changed and developed as rapidly as data privacy over the last few years. Staying up to date on these new and amended laws and regulations is essential to ensure compliance and best practices.
