What strategies can businesses use to turn data privacy into a competitive advantage?

Make privacy part of product quality. Use plain policies, channel specific consent, and automated evidence collection. Publish a trust page and keep proofs fresh. This shortens sales cycles and raises win rates.

Why it matters
Buyers reward companies that say what they do and prove it.
