Strategy/Policy/Standard

There ought to be a strategy to guide a company’s digital efforts, and from there one can derive policies (the what to do and not do) and standards (how to do it).

Developing digital policies can help avoid lawsuits, data breaches, regulations, and social faux pas.

The risks to business are now too large to ignore. Organizations must balance the opportunities of having an online presence versus the new rules being introduced by the applicable legal and regulatory bodies.

The “must-have” policies that every organization with a digital presence include:

  • Accessibility

  • Cookies and tracking policy

  • Copyrights and protections

  • Data breach response

  • Data privacy

  • Email marketing and spam

  • Emergency response and business continuity

  • Online piracy
