Privacy by Default and Design is a fundamental principle of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It prioritises transparency, user control, and data security from the outset. This approach ensures that privacy is integrated into systems and processes by default rather than as an afterthought.
By embedding these practices, organisations enhance trust and accountability while meeting regulatory requirements. However, challenges such as resistance to change and the need for cultural transformation must be addressed to implement this principle effectively.
In this episode of the Don’t Panic It’s Just Data, Tudor Galos, Senior Privacy Consultant, speaks to Paulina Rios Maya, Head of Industry Relations, about the impact of privacy by default and design extend to user experience, where issues like consent fatigue and the necessity for user-friendly interfaces arise.
