The importance of linking consent management with customer identity management
[If there were ever two solutions that go hand in hand…!] The importance of linking consent management with customer identity management
Identity on the internet has always been tied to communication. In the early days, an email address was an individual’s entire presence on the web. People sought out the best domains for aliases, the more unique the better. An email address defined your individuality. A person was synonymous with how they could be contacted.
Data Privacy Is the Key to a Successful Business
We live in a world where data has the Midas touch. It has become intertwined within our modern way of life (see my recent post ‘Why is Data So Important?’[1] for more detail). As a result, we are starting to reach a tipping point. We are living more of our lives online, and the current pandemic has only accelerated that even further. Your digital footprint is becoming your identity, and with that brings an emotional attachment to keeping it safe and secure. As these concerns become more widespread, companies are coming under increased scrutiny over what they are doing with that valuable data and how a consumer will benefit from it.
Why Is Data So Important?
We are currently producing more data than ever before. If data were to represent rain, we would have it coming through the doors, the windows, the roof, and the walls.

Contact tracing, also known as track and trace or test and trace, has become very visible over the last few months, but you might be unaware that it has been going on behind the scenes for years in the digital world: I am talking about how big companies track your data! What you do, what you see, what you like – they know so much that they are even able to predict what you might do next using the powers of big data and artificial intelligence (AI). While some of this can seem very scary, there are some benefits, such as giving you a personalised experience and improved offerings.

Contact Tracing – Managing risk
The UK National Health Service (NHS) are providing a Test and Trace service, (also referred to as track and trace), to help manage the spread of Covid-19. Many businesses have been asked to support this by collecting contact details of their visitors as a form of contact tracing, but what does this mean for those businesses who have been asked to do this?
