As the hospitality industry's guide in today's ever more treacherous journey toward data protection, VENZA has always sought to provide up-to-date expertise and tools to achieve, assess, track and document progress. For example, during VENZA's central involvement in HTNG's GDPR for Hospitality workgroup, close attention was given to the unique needs that hotel groups have with regards to privacy regulations (i.e. GDPR, CCPA). As a result, VENZA launched a program that includes access to the Privacy Nexus privacy management system. Flush with multiple functionalities to facilitate compliance (e.g. Data Inventory, Data Subject Request Management, Incident & Breach Management, 3rd Party Management), through the partnership with VENZA, Privacy Nexus is equipped with templates for hotel systems and processings. These templates, along with the always-welcome assistance of VENZA's on-staff Privacy Engineers, ensure maximum meaningful application of the system.

"Consisting of a team of privacy consultants and software experts, working with Privacy Nexus makes good sense for any organization seeking to satisfy their privacy regulation responsibilities", says Renske Nouwens, Privacy Nexus's Commercial Director. "By combining our team with VENZA's hospitality-industry expertise, we've achieved a product that can deliver value soon after rollout."

Privacy Company (parent to Privacy Nexus) Director, Frank Koppejan, added, "We seek to make sure that our products are designed to make privacy as practical and easy as possible. When it comes to hospitality, I cannot imagine a partnership better suited to deliver against that goal than working with VENZA."

"Our singular focus is to assemble a suite of resources, from corporate to on-property, tech stack to culture, for an industry hungry to protect data and demonstrate a commitment to privacy," said Daniel Johnson, Partner/Co-Founder of VENZA. "Our close collaboration with the Privacy Nexus team, who just happens to be located a little less than one kilometer from VENZA's Dutch office, has been and continues to be the epitome of effective teamwork."

In addition to serving as a vehicle for privacy regulation compliance, studies show that generating thorough processing inventories and other required activities can lead to significant additional organizational benefits. Not least of which, GDPR compliance has shown to reduce data breach risk by 15%. Compliance is a journey and as your guide, VENZA and their partners (e.g. Privacy Nexus) aim to ensure that hoteliers reap the maximum benefits from their very necessary investment in data protection.
