A Privacy Commissioner is an official responsible for overseeing and enforcing laws related to personal data protection and privacy. This role involves ensuring that organizations comply with regulations that safeguard individuals' private information. The commissioner also investigates complaints from the public regarding potential breaches of privacy rights. In many countries, the Privacy Commissioner has the authority to issue guidelines, conduct audits, and recommend changes to improve data protection practices. They play a crucial role in promoting awareness about privacy issues and educating the public on their rights under laws such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
