The Voice for Privacy and Access

Wisdom Wednesday WebinarsPrivacy & Data Governance Congress 2026

PACC is the leading authority for privacy and access competence.

•  Independent  • Non-profit  •  Non-partisan  • Non-government  •

PACC is dedicated to the development of the access-to-information, information privacy, and data protection profession across the private, non-profit, and public sectors.

PACC engages in outreach efforts to advance awareness about access, privacy, and data protection, believing that the best route to improved privacy, and to organizational accountability and privacy compliance, is through greater awareness of rights, responsibilities, and regulations.

PACC helps members succeed by giving voice to issues that affect members and the profession

PACC advances awareness of Access to Information, Protection of Privacy, Data Protection and Information Governance

PACC provides updates on legislative and regulatory requirements, enforcement and outcomes

PACC engages in outreach to provide relevant, reliable, and practical professional development opportunities

PACC advocates on behalf of its members and is a reliable source for media

PACC neither represents nor advocates on behalf of individuals

PACC is the certifying body representing leadership and excellence in information privacy, access to information, and data governance

PACC offers an established and credible certification program that is the foundation of the national standard of competence for the privacy, access, and data protection profession.

PACC certification is relevant to privacy and access; is applicable to the private, public, and non-profit sectors throughout the country; and is not an exam-based program

PACC certification relies on an unbiased qualification process founded upon three pillars of demonstrable skill + experience + education

 

PACC upholds the highest standards of practice and promotes ethical and sound privacy, access, and data governance practices, policies, and legislation

PACC members adhere to a Code of Conduct and believe that good privacy, access and governance practices contribute to an organization’s ability to create value, be accountable, and meet legislated compliance requirements

PACC acts as an advisory body to professional and industry associations, government bodies, educational institutions, and other groups

PACC offers opportunities for members and the public to have a voice in the course that access and privacy take
