WASHINGTON (January 23, 2023) – Today, the National Cybersecurity Alliance (NCA), announced the program for this year’s Data Privacy Week campaign, which will take place from January 22nd to January 28th. After expanding Data Privacy Day into a week-long initiative for the first time last year, Data Privacy Week will continue to raise awareness about the importance of digital privacy for consumers and businesses. The campaign’s 2023 themes focus on reinforcing consumer knowledge about personal data protection while addressing business’ responsibility for ethical user privacy and data collection practices.
“Data Privacy Week is critical for arming consumers with the tools they need to take ownership of their digital identities and to remind them to think critically about who they share their data with and how to protect it,” said Lisa Plaggemeier, Executive Director, NCA. “It’s also a platform to emphasize why businesses must maintain a gold standard of respect and transparency around how they collect, store and use consumer data, alongside the benefits of doing so.”
