Information practices
Prevailing standards for businesses that collect personally identifiable information fall into
four main categories: notice, choice, access and security. Stated differently, these
information-gathering practices involve respectively (a) disclosure of the company’s
privacy policies, (b) options and a voice about how one’s personal information is stored
and used, (c) an individual’s right to review, correct and contest data pertaining to him or
her, and (d) commitment to and assurances by the business that reasonable steps are taken to
safeguard the information people have disclosed.
