Data privacy policy just as important as the security measures protecting it<\/h1>\n

By Aaron Melgar<\/a><\/p>\n

A lot of\u00a0emphasis\u00a0has been placed on data security\u00a0from hackers or ransomware, but the latest data governance\u00a0regulations\u00a0also set provisions around privacy and access to the data.
