“Did you hear? Another state passed a new privacy regulation.”

”Round up the compliance team again. Time to go through all of the new requirements to ensure we’re complying with this new privacy framework.”

Every few months, it seems a new state is passing a new privacy regulation. If you do business in that state, then you have to learn the details of the new privacy regulation and ensure/demonstrate compliance with a whole new set of rules.

Even a mid-sized company could easily be subject to 2, 3, or even 4 privacy regulations, and the number is only growing. Congress could pass a federal privacy law to make things simpler. But Congress is moving at the pace of Congress. The FTC in May 2020 called for a federal privacy law. Years later, we’re still waiting. (Source: The Brookings Institution) And we have no idea if a federal privacy law will ever come.

The solution: Universal Privacy. Begin with Privacy Quickstart and answer a few simple questions about your privacy program. Universal Privacy then acts as a “rosetta stone” translator, using your Quickstart responses to complete a large portion of each jurisdiction’s regulations for you automatically, based on your Quickstart responses. No need to keep reinventing the wheel or re-enter the same response for many different states and countries.

Universal Privacy helps you manage your program for each privacy jurisdiction, allowing you to demonstrate compliance for any jurisdiction, at any time. When managing things Universally, you only need to make updates in one place.

Conduct your first DPIA? Just input this information once and let Universal Privacy place this information into the proper articles for each jurisdiction, as opposed to finding the DPIA sections for Europe, and then for California, and then again for Virginia.

Save time and money with Universal Privacy. It’s part of our Privacy Observatory™ platform that includes Everything You Need to Build a Privacy Program.™
