Privacy Health Check

A practical look at your privacy practices and a clear path forward.

Whether you have a privacy program in place or are just beginning to build one, it’s not always easy to know where you stand.

The Privacy Health Check from PrivacyWorks gives you a focused, expert-led assessment of your current privacy practices and a clear, actionable plan to help you improve. This isn’t a theoretical review. It’s a practical tool to help you reduce risk, strengthen trust, and align with the privacy obligations that apply to your organization.

What is a privacy health check?

A Privacy Health Check is a guided assessment of your organization’s privacy posture.

We look at how your policies, procedures, and operations are working in practice — and where gaps or risks may be hiding.

This service is ideal for organizations that:
• Aren’t sure whether their current privacy practices are sufficient
• Are building or refreshing a privacy program
• Are preparing for audits, funding reviews, or external oversight
• Have grown quickly or experienced internal change
• Need a privacy reset before launching new services

Whether you're trying to get ahead of new legislation or build a stronger foundation, a Privacy Health Check helps you take the right next steps with clarity and confidence.
