companies to be clear about their data privacy policy, like how they are using it and what are they going to offer
in return to customer. Brands are expected to safeguard customer’s data so companies are trying to get it right in
ways they can. Customers provide their information on basis of trust relationship they have with that particular
brand so companies are also working on keeping customer’s data safe as possible. Data ethics is a complex
topic but global leaders are also taking part in discussion about it because it is a very essential to grow business
and keep customers engaged with company. Various governments are planning to implement laws that protect
customer’s data and privacy. Data analysts, data scientists, and all other data practitioners have to follow data
ethics for successful business planning. Principles of Data Ethics are explained below.
