Salinger Privacy can deliver tailor-made solutions to your privacy problems.
By working in partnership with our clients across Australia and New Zealand, reviewing people, practices and systems, we can identify the critical points of strength and weakness within each organisation’s information management life cycle.
At Salinger Privacy we pride ourselves on taking a pragmatic approach to developing recommendations for our clients. We recognise that it is not always possible to achieve a ‘Rolls Royce’ standard of privacy protection, and we therefore prioritise recommendations which seek to address high-risk areas, with minimal resourcing input or impact on achieving corporate objectives.
Privacy Impact Assessment
Being involved up-front in the design of new initiatives ensures that privacy compliance and best practice can be ‘built-in’ rather than ‘bolted on’. Privacy Impact Assessment, or PIA, is the ideal tool for assessing new initiatives, whether they are technical, policy or legislative.
When it comes to PIAs, we can literally say: “We wrote the book”.

Privacy Compliance Reviews
We have extensive experience in conducting organisational reviews, focusing on privacy compliance and data governance within organisations.
A privacy review provides a detailed examination of both policy and practice, to review the level of maturity of the privacy management program, and to highlight compliance gaps and privacy risks in the practices of the organisation.
