Office of the Privacy Commissioner | New privacy toolkit set to support business and organisations
The Office of the Privacy Commissioner has launched a free online toolkit today to help businesses and organisations do privacy well.
Privacy Commissioner Michael Webster says, "A strong privacy culture is increasingly a competitive advantage.
"But we know that while businesses and organisations need to be good at privacy, that’s sometimes a struggle. We wanted to make good privacy easier for New Zealand businesses to achieve, so their customers can reap the rewards of excellent privacy practices," he says.
The toolkit, called Poupou Matatapu, is free and online from today, Monday 15 July. It’s designed to help with privacy management, but it also helps organisations and businesses to improve their data quality, innovation, customer and stakeholder trust, and decision-making processes.
"We know that our country’s organisations and businesses are diverse and that they need solutions that are fit for purpose to help them meet their privacy obligations.
"The toolkit also shows scenarios to help people better understand how privacy works in practice, says Mr Webster.
"Poupou Matatapu is about us helping to support New Zealand businesses to do privacy well."
