ISO 27701 is the international standard for managing privacy and protecting personal data. It is an extension of ISO 27001 (Information Security Management), adding specific privacy controls aligned with data protection laws like GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), Australia's Privacy Act, and state based legislation from the USA such as CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act).
ISO 27701 Privacy compliance helps organisations manage Personally Identifiable Information (PII) securely, bridging the gap between data privacy and information security and supporting regulatory compliance such as GDPR, Australian Privacy Principles, and CCPA. Importantly, Privacy compliance builds trust in your data handling practices with customers and other stakeholders.
Privacy compliance is important for all businesses and organisations that collect, process, or store personal data, such as technology companies (SaaS, cloud providers), financial institutions, healthcare organisations, government agencies, telecommunications companies, utilities, insurance companies, marketing businesses, and any company handling sensitive customer data.
