Local Planning Notes
Ridgehill privacy planning should account for residential customer records, service appointments, paper files, mobile devices, and vendor platforms.
Paper and phone records need the same attention
Printed estimates, handwritten forms, texts, voicemail, and phone photos should be included in privacy procedures.
