New data privacy regulations are landing with tight deadlines, leaving businesses scrambling for practical solutions. While legal teams focus on interpretation, operations teams need actionable strategies that work in the real world.

Their conversation reveals that effective compliance isn’t about perfection from day one, it’s about smart prioritisation and building adaptable systems.

From automated data mapping tools to staff training shortcuts, our panel shares the practical insights that help businesses move from panic to compliance quickly and sustainably.

“Start by mapping exactly what personal data you collect, use, and store, because you can’t protect what you don’t know you have. Then delete anything you don’t need. The less data you hold, the lower your risk.

“Next, update your privacy policy so it’s clear, accurate, and written in plain English. Forget the legalese; your users (and regulators) want transparency.

“Make sure your team is trained. Most data breaches aren’t about bad tech, they’re about people clicking the wrong thing or sending info to the wrong place.

“And if you’re unsure? Get a privacy consultant involved early. It’s faster and cheaper to get it right the first time than to fix a breach or regulatory mess later.
