What is Data Privacy Day?
Every year, Data Privacy Day, reminds us that every year to review how our personal information is used. It's a great time to take stock and assess our personal security.
Our personal information is collected and used on a variety of websites and for various reasons. Most of the time, the people who have access to our records don't need it. In addition, it is both legally and illegally redistributed. Massive amounts of personal information can be easily distributed thanks to the internet. Although the facts may be out there due to our own carelessness or privacy abuses, there are steps you can take to shield yourself.
