I have been working on data privacy since before it was a recognised area of law. When I started out, what is now understood as privacy was part of a company’s compliance programme and fell to its compliance officers. Of course, privacy still falls under compliance, but it has become a unique feature of the compliance programme.
To oversimplify things for the sake of making a point, privacy is just compliance with an IT flavour, and it is something I have been giving presentations on to boards of directors and executive management for over a decade.
