The Circle of Trust Benefit Member Club TRUST
Trust Equation
Trust Principles Focus on the Member Collaboration Long-Term Relationship Transparency
Data Privacy and Security Privacy – the right of the member to choose what information they share and with whom and when it is shared Security – the level of protection a club puts in place to control access to member information
Trust and Data Privacy & Security Meeting Member Expectations An opportunity for competitive advantage
Some Statistics Area Business (% agree) Consumer (% agree) In general, consumer information is adequately protected? 50% 37% Data privacy policies are clear and well understood? 77% 40% The risk of sharing personal information is worth the personalised promotions, advertising or member discounts received? 47% 25%
Competitive Opportunity “The link between consumer decisions and perceived data security is stronger than many executives believe”
Data Privacy and Security Considerations Vision and Strategy Making it a Priority Collection and Use Strategy Breach Strategy
Vision and Strategy Questions How can we improve the member experience using data? What data do we need to collect? When should we seek member consent and allow them to opt in? Do we have excess member data we do not need? In attempting to improve the member experience are we seen as intrusive? How transparent and coordinated are we in the event of a breach?
Opt In versus Opt Out “Ask for my consent and allow me to decide which information I want to share” May reduce marketing ROI in the short-term Pay off in the long-term through greater trust and greater member openness to share data
Data Privacy and Security Considerations Policies Clear organisation wide understanding Up to date policies (Technology & Regulation) Easy to understand
Developing Policies “Develop privacy and security policies as if they were a marketing tool rather than a legal disclosure” What information do we ask for? How do we use this information? How do you opt in or opt out of providing information or our use of information How do we protect your information What are the benefits to you of providing information
