The next IISA PIP seminar will be held on Monday, 10 May 2010 at the KPMG Auditorium in Albany Road, Parktown and will address the implications of the new Protection of Personal Information Bill, which is expected to be enacted later this year.
The Bills aims to give effect to the constitutional right to privacy, by introducing measures to ensure that organizations process personal information in a fair, responsible and secure manner.
Companies that fail to safeguard personal information of customers and employees could face civil liability claims, criminal sanctions and reputational damage. The Privacy Lecture will include:
• An overview of the current information protection legislation impacting the insurance industry
• An introduction to the information protection principles contained in the PPI Bill
• Understanding the practical implications of the PPI Bill for the insurance industry
• What other organizations are doing to get ready for the PPI Bill
