How to Review Security Requirements Before Collecting Customer Data

11/10/2026

A form or new feature may collect information the business does not need or cannot safely protect.

Checks to make

List each field and purpose, identify who can access it and how long it is retained, and remove optional collection without a clear need. Review transmission, storage, deletion, and vendor handling with the responsible business owner before launch.
