Notes
-----

This is a �skeleton� policy providing just the bare bones, the basic foundations on
which to construct a custom policy for your organisation. It is written in the
first person, the style typically used by privacy policies published on corporate
websites. As hinted at by the standard's mention of communicating the policy to
all relevant interested parties, it would normally be supplemented by classical
internal/corporate security policies and procedures expanding on the obligations,
requirements and practicalities for workers handling personal information (not just
digital computer data, remember).

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER; given the compliance and risk implications, the policy MUST
be customised/adapted, extended and approved by competent specialist advisors
familiar with the particular laws, regulations and risks applicable to your
organisation. This generic and incomplete skeleton policy is simply provided to
get you started: it is NOT advice.
