The book and the Companion Web site provide information to assist readers in establishing a privacy-friendly business or other enterprise by meeting a minimum level of privacy best practices and/or regulatory compliance standards that may be reasonable and appropriate for the size and complexity of a Small Enterprise. Small Enterprise in the context of the book is any legal person, and not limited to an individual, business, not-for-profit, governmental entity, etc. with fewer than 100 employees or annual revenues of less than $25 million. Small enterprise also excludes publicly held companies.  Although the book and the PMO Web site may contain Legal Information, neither the book nor the Companion Web site provide or are intended to provide Legal Advice.

The information and materials in the book and PMO Web site, while not intended for larger enterprises, may be applicable with adaptation for the complexities of a larger enterprise or a business that is publicly traded. The information and materials in the book and PMO Web site exclude compliance to international privacy laws, although some documents, such as the Privacy Policy, which is based on the principles of the Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation, may be adaptable.

The author has taken reasonable steps to make sure the information and compliance documentation contained in the book and the Companion Web site is accurate. Because each enterprise is different; local, state and federal laws are different and are changing; and the documentation includes elements of privacy and employment law; we recommend having your independent and qualified legal counsel review each document for applicability to the current laws that your enterprise is subject to at the time of your adaptation of the materials contained within.
