Pressure points
Trust is the currency of every charity.
- 01
Coverage is not always obvious
Some not-for-profits fall under the Privacy Act because of their turnover or the services they provide, such as health services. Others choose to follow it to meet funder expectations.
- 02
Vulnerable clients
Many organisations hold sensitive information about people experiencing hardship, illness or disability.
- 03
Donor and volunteer data
Fundraising, CRM and email platforms hold large amounts of personal information, often managed by volunteers.
- 04
Small teams, many tools
Governance has to be proportionate, practical and easy to keep running.
