É bastante possível que você ou não esteja atento ao tema, ou acredite que ele é de menor importância, ou ache que tem tempo para se adaptar, ou que a lei não vai pegar no Brasil, ou que sei lá mais o quê. Bom, se fosse teste de múltipla escolha, qualquer das alternativas acima estaria absolutamente errada.
Apesar de termos no Brasil nossa própria legislação, a LGPD – Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados, muito baseada na original européia GDPR – General Data Protection Regulation, trata-se de um movimento global e todas as empresas terão que se adaptar a ele. Multas muito peadas já foram aplicadas na Europa e serão aplicadas mundo afora, inclusive no Brasil.
Ocorre que parte da abrangência dessas leis atropela exatamente o Marketing e a gestão de dados dos consumidores, que todos no mercado, inclusive você, vêm lançando mão à pândega, livre, leve e solto (ou solta).
Isso vai mudar e você precisará se adaptar.
Leia este artigo do eMarketer, que coloca bem o problema do marqueteiro diante da nova realidade legal.
Prometo escrever bastante sobre o tema aqui, aguarde. Vou te ajudar (literalmente) nessa trajetória.
Protecting Customer Data Is a Top Challenge for CMOs
Last week, HSBC Bank confirmed that someone hacked its customer data. These kinds of incidents continue to frequently pop up in the news and are emblematic of what stresses CMOs in a data-driven world.
Reddit, Under Armour, Timehop, MyHeritage, Yahoo, Equifax and Target are just a few of the companies that have experienced data breaches in recent years. The proliferation of data breaches is happening at a time when marketers are becoming more reliant upon user data. In a September survey of 226 CMOs worldwide conducted by Forbes Insights and The Trade Desk, 42% of respondents said that protecting customer data is one of their top data-related challenges.
Another thing that makes chief marketers further fret about data security is legislation. In May, the EU’s General Protection Data Regulation (GDPR) become enforceable. Following this, the California Consumer Privacy Act was signed into law in June and is set to take effect in 2020. US citizens and Congress members alike are becoming more comfortable with the idea of data regulation.
“It’s no wonder that consumers are growing frustrated with the steady stream of data breach news these days, and their trust is becoming more fragile,” said Ian Woolley, chief revenue officer of Ensighten. “This is an executive matter.”
With data privacy frequently in the news, some marketers are agonizing over the threat of data breaches.
Dentsu Aegis Network surveyed 1,000 senior-level marketers worldwide in May and found that nearly three in 10 respondents believed a data breach was the strategic risk they’ll worry about the most over the next few years. The polled marketers worried more about data misuse than increasing competition.
