Privacy Taxonomy: Streamlining Data Privacy with a Common Language

The Privacy Taxonomy is a universal taxonomy designed to standardize how privacy-related data elements, data usage, and data subjects are categorized across the digital media ecosystem. This foundational specification enables interoperability between systems, helping organizations uphold consumer privacy rights such as the right to delete, access, and correct personal data. In this deep-dive session, we’ll explore how the Privacy Taxonomy helps bridge the gap between legal team and technical teams by providing a common language for managing privacy practices and data governance. You’ll gain an understanding of the core components of the taxonomy – Data Elements, Data Uses, and Data Subjects – and learn how this open standard supports compliance with major regulations.
