Privacy by design, officially known as data protection by design and default in the UK and Europe, is a critical aspect of effective data protection compliance, particularly considering the emergence of artificial intelligence. Initially introduced in 1995, the widespread adoption of privacy by design is largely owing to it being a legal requirement under Article 25 of the UK and EU General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR). However, in addition, there has been a marked shift in business attitudes, with organisations increasingly viewing data protection as a strategic priority rather than an afterthought.
Several reasons are behind the growing popularity of privacy by design. Embedding data protection measures directly into process, product and service development strengthens information security and cyber resilience, reducing the risk of unauthorised access and personal data breaches. While taking such a proactive approach facilitates compliance with regulations like GDPR, it also encourages organisations to look beyond legal obligations and consider the moral implications of data collection and use. By promoting privacy by design and the adoption of ethical data practices, organisations can establish a strong culture of privacy across the entire organisation. This not only reduces the burden on often under-resourced compliance teams but also leads to a more holistic approach to data protection operations management.
The benefits of adopting privacy by design are also noteworthy. In the first instance, organisations can achieve significant cost efficiencies. This is because incorporating data protection measures from the outset is generally more economical than retrofitting existing systems at a later date. The second and potentially more substantial benefit relates to a notable increase in consumer and service user trust. Numerous studies have shown that when individuals feel that their privacy and information rights are being respected, they are more inclined to share personal information, engage with products or services, and demonstrate higher levels of customer satisfaction, loyalty, and brand advocacy.
This practical short course on privacy by design addresses how to comply with the legal requirements for Data Protection by Design and by Default under Article 25 of the UK GDPR.
Attendees will learn how to implement privacy by design throughout the lifecycle of any personal data processing activity. This includes how to establish procedures for assessing data protection issues during the initial design and development of new systems, projects, products, and services, along with how to review processing activities in order to maintain GDPR compliance.
