In today’s digital landscape, personal data is the lifeblood of marketing teams, fuelling targeted campaigns and personalized experiences that resonate with customers. However, failing to comply with data protection regulations can have severe consequences, including hefty fines and reputational damage. That’s why understanding your data flow is crucial. A data flow mapping workshop helps you visualize how personal data moves through your organization, identifying risks and ensuring compliance.

Our Data Flow Mapping workshop is designed to help marketers develop an understanding of the key principles of data privacy, the ability to identify where they apply to their campaigns and processes and the ways in which they can help ensure your organisation complies with regulation and reduces risk. It’s a proactive approach that not only safeguards your customers’ data but also strengthens your marketing strategy, ensuring that every interaction is not just meaningful but also lawful.

Overview

The Data Flow Mapping (DFM) workshop is an interactive session for marketers.  We begin an overview of the privacy landscape and upcoming challenges. Participants will then delve into

  • the definition and handling of personal and sensitive information,
  • understanding the key principles of data privacy driving regulatory compliance. A
  • working together to map out the data flow for key processes, pinpointing where personal information is collected, stored, and utilized.

Using this map, we will conduct a risk assessment to identify potential regulatory breaches. We will examine current data management practices, highlighting any existing gaps and brainstorm risk mitigation strategies.
