Explanation

When developing a company privacy program, a privacy professional needs to understand the business objectives, processes, and risks of the organization, as well as the legal and regulatory requirements and best practices for privacy. To achieve this, a privacy professional should establish and maintain relationships with individuals across company departments and at different levels in the organization's hierarchy, such as IT, marketing, human resources, legal, compliance, security, and senior management. These relationships will help the privacy professional to gather relevant information, identify privacy issues and gaps, communicate privacy policies and procedures, provide training and awareness, monitor compliance, and resolve conflicts. The other relationships listed are also important, but not as essential as the internal relationships for developing a company privacy program.
