Every company pays lip service to privacy. But few seem to really value it in practice.
In marketing and sales, we rely on personal and behavioural data for so many commonplace tactics, and this reliance is only increasing.
It's a kind of arms race. Even if you wanted to, it feels like you can't afford to give up the perceived advantages of using personal data.
And even as we continually hear about the "death" of this or that type of tracking, the reality is that hundreds of billions of advertising revenue are on the line. The incentives to keep collecting and commodifying our data are huge.
I wanted to dig deeper into the current state of privacy in marketing today, and I could think of no better person to reach out to than Stephane Hamel.
He is a legendary practitioner and thought leader in the digital analytics space and one of the foremost advocates for privacy and ethics in marketing.
