Episode 22 — Identify collection points and capture purpose, legal basis, and data quality needs
This episode focuses on identifying data collection points and documenting purpose, lawful basis drivers, and data quality requirements, because CIPM questions often hinge on whether you can define processing clearly enough to govern it. You will learn how to locate collection across websites, apps, call centers, forms, HR systems, logs, and third-party sources, then capture the “why” behind the data so minimization, retention, and disclosure controls can be set correctly. We discuss how data quality impacts privacy outcomes, including inaccurate records that break rights fulfillment, weak identity verification, and incorrect profiling. Best practices include using consistent taxonomy, linking collection to downstream systems, and establishing checkpoints when products change. Troubleshooting covers how to handle shadow collection through embedded SDKs, vendor forms, and legacy integrations that no one “owns” anymore.
