Wednesday, January 28, is Data Privacy Day 2009, a day created by the Council of Europe in 2007 to raise awareness about the importance of data privacy. And we are doing exactly that at AOL.
At our offices across the nation and around the world, we’re reminding employees of their responsibility – as individuals, parents, and employees – to protect privacy online:
Protect yourself from identity theft by shredding documents, being careful with your passwords, regularly using anti-virus and anti-spyware software, and checking your credit report.
Protect your kids and teens from online privacy risks by being aware of what they’re doing online, and teaching them to be careful about giving out information to people they don’t know about themselves and your family. Visit www.safetyclicks.com to learn more.
Protect consumers by knowing the relevant privacy policies and best practices, knowing internal policies for data collection and use, and looking for new ways for consumers to find out how their data is used and what choices or privacy controls are available to them. Good privacy practices are central to preserving our trusted relationship with consumers.
