Know why an organization collects, uses, or discloses your personal information;
Expect an organization to collect, use, or disclose your personal information reasonably and appropriately, and not use the information for any purpose other than that to which you have consented;
Know who in the organization is responsible for protecting your personal information;
Expect an organization to protect your personal information by taking appropriate security measures;
Expect the personal information an organization holds about you to be as accurate, complete, and up-to-date as necessary for the purposes for which the information will be used;
Obtain access to your personal information and ask for corrections if necessary; and
Complain about how an organization handles your personal information if you feel your privacy rights have not been respected.
