Data Privacy Week is a global effort that generates awareness about the importance of privacy, highlights easy ways to protect personal information and reminds individuals and organizations that privacy is good for everyone. Data Privacy Week also encourages businesses to respect data and be more transparent about how they collect and use customer data.
Texas Woman’s University recognizes and supports the principle that all organizations share the responsibility of being conscientious stewards of personal information.
History
In 2022, National Cybersecurity Alliance (NCA) expanded the Data Privacy Day campaign into Data Privacy Week, a full week-long initiative. Data Privacy Day began in the United States and Canada in January 2008 as an extension of Data Protection Day in Europe. Data Protection Day commemorates the Jan. 28, 1981 signing of Convention 108, the first legally binding international treaty dealing with privacy and data protection.
