What does a privacy manager do?

A Privacy Manager is responsible for ensuring that an organization complies with data protection laws and regulations. They develop, implement, and oversee policies and practices that protect sensitive information from unauthorized access or breaches. Privacy Managers also conduct privacy risk assessments, provide training to staff, respond to data subject requests, and serve as the main point of contact for privacy-related issues. Their work is crucial in helping organizations maintain the trust of customers and stakeholders while avoiding legal penalties.
