At Carnival Corporation, the world's largest cruise company, we believe this applies not just at sea but to all global companies looking to elevate their approach to information and privacy governance. Today's world of information privacy is extremely complex, driven by advanced technology and evolving regulations, so large global organizations increasingly need to work in lockstep across all key departments to continually `raise the tide' in protecting data and privacy. Utilizing best practices in collaboration and communication across the organization will enable global privacy teams to enhance education, engagement and integration throughout the company and drive innovation in information and privacy governance.At Carnival Corporation, we align with our company's mission to create happiness and deliver the best possible experience for our guests, which includes their trust in our effective handling of data, fueled by shipboard and shoreside employees eager to do the right thing day in and day out. Information and privacy governance is a key piece of an overall positive guest experience, and our common goals enable us to meet the highest levels of privacy expectations from both employees and guests, who trust us to handle and protect their information as if it was our own.For a cruise company operating on a global scale like Carnival Corporation, successfully optimizing information and privacy governance presents its unique set of challenges.Layering maritime law, immigration law, port authority and other multi-national regulations with ever-evolving policies and procedures for information and privacy governance creates a challenging environment. It requires a commitment to optimizing your privacy programs by working together to build relationships across teams around the world, consistently communicating and constantly monitoring data and team feedback to support world-class data security risk management.Our teams work diligently to successfully meet these ongoing challenges by pushing innovation and collaborating across multiple departments from ship to shore, driven by our Global Information Security & Compliance Services (GISCS) group working in close partnership with our technical teams led by our chief information officer (CIO) and chief information security officer (CISO). This collaborative framework enables us to capitalize on multiple perspectives and areas of expertise to adapt quickly to changing circumstances and come up with new solutions for continuous improvement in privacy and information governance while keeping pace with business and regulatory changes. This helps us execute our strategic plans and meet the obligations of our global privacy policy to properly manage, delete and share information while minimizing overall risk across the company.By Jennifer Garone, Senior Director, Privacy and Information Governance, Carnival Cruise LineTHREE BEST PRACTICES TO DRIVE COLLABORATION AND INNOVATION IN DATA PRIVACY
