A business should know what data it collects, why it collects it, where it is stored, who can access it, and how long it is retained. Data governance starts with an inventory, classification, and clear ownership.
Apply least privilege, separate read and write access, review accounts, encrypt sensitive data, minimize copies, and enforce retention and deletion policies. Provide understandable privacy notices and processes for correction or deletion where applicable. Prepare incident response, train staff, assess vendors, document data flows, and measure classification coverage and request response time.
