By offering a clear understanding of how personal data is collected, processed, and shared, it simplifies compliance with laws like CCPA, VCDPA, GDPR, and others, while also mitigating privacy risks. Beyond its regulatory advantages, data mapping also enables better data management practices and helps businesses build trust with consumers. In short, it’s an investment in both compliance and long-term success.

This law introduces stringent requirements for businesses that handle the personal data of Rhode Island residents, aiming to promote transparency and safeguard consumer rights.
