WEB PRIVACY
Cyber Privacy - Gaining the trust of Online consumers

Results from a Federal Trade Commission survey indicate that upwards of 85% of commercial websites collect personal information, and yet less than 15% of these same sites provide any notice of their information practices.

Privacy threats from new technologies are real as is the potential for misuse of collected data. The online privacy laws are aimed at protecting intrusion into private data, inappropriate disclosure of private information, identify theft, and the ability of consumers to make choices to protect their privacy.

Privacy Policies should describe an organization's data practices or what they do with the data they collect from individuals. Websites often collect data about and from individuals visiting their websites.
