While legal teams have influence over some of their business' spending decisions, that rarely extends to what privacy technology their organizations purchase, according to the “How Privacy Tech Is Bought and Deployed” survey of 345 in-house privacy professionals conducted by IAPP and TrustArc.
The survey found that only 26% of organizations sought out their attorneys' input on what privacy legal update tools to purchase, while just under 20% did the same with privacy program assessment, data subject consent or data subject rights request platforms. Less than 15% of all organizations gave legal a say in any other privacy-related technology purchase.
