Be preventative, not remedial
7 Foundational Principles of Privacy by Design was launched in 2010 by Dr Ann Cavoukian, the Information and Privacy Commissioner for Ontario, and has since become the accepted standard for the privacy industry - legislators and practitioners alike.
Be preventative, not remedial
Be the default
Be embedded into process design
Allow full functionality, not be obstructive
Entail full end-to-end data security
Be visible, transparent and communicated
Put the data subject first
No matter the shape or size of the organization, or whether Privacy by Design is being considered for an individual project or department, or the whole business, Calligo’s team of data privacy, IT security and legal consultants will:
Assess your business or project objectives, dependencies, operations and geographies.

Design a natural workflow that ensures balance between performance requirements and regulatory obligations.
Deliver a suitable technical and legal structure for your business or project that also addresses security and data privacy requirements.
Ensure ongoing adherence to your regulatory and ethical obligations, or new ones as they may arise, with regular assessments.

Implementing Privacy by Design frameworks is the ultimate sign of an organization wanting to ensure their data interactions are ethical and legitimate, which can be a key mitigating factor with Supervisory Authorities
Privacy by Design underpins wider data privacy programmes and their objectives of continuous adherence, especially as most national and industry-specific privacy frameworks are also based on its principles
An organization whose data lifecycles and interactions are already built on the fundamentals of data privacy can be confident that any data-driven innovation is inherently safe, adherent and legal
Organizations that have implemented Privacy by Design principles will engage with their audience differently to those that have not, and will inspire trust and confidence, and even leniancy in the case of a breach
The Privacy by Design principles ensure that stakeholders are engaged, data flows are visible and communication channels are open, which is a natural foundation for responding to any breach
