Simplifying Compliance: How Clym's All-in-One Solution Supports Modern Businesses

Today’s compliance landscape is growing rapidly and becoming increasingly complex. Businesses face a tangled web of requirements across data privacy, accessibility, security, and online governance. Keeping up with these ever-evolving regulations can feel overwhelming. That’s where

Clym can help businesses with their all-in-one compliance solution, which is built to simplify these challenges and help them navigate their obligations easily and efficiently.

Understanding the Fragmented Compliance Landscape

The past decade has witnessed a significant expansion in regulations across key areas:

Data Privacy Regulations

Data privacy has become a global priority, with over 110 countries enacting data privacy laws as of 2024. Notably, by the end of 2024, it’s predicted that 75% of the global population will have their personal data covered under privacy regulations. High-profile cases, such as Meta’s $1.3 billion fine for privacy violations in 2023, underscore the serious implications of non-compliance.

Accessibility Requirements

Web accessibility is essential for inclusivity, with approximately 1.3 billion people globally, 16% of the population experiencing significant disabilities. Despite this, over 96% of the top one million web pages had accessibility issues in 2023, highlighting a substantial gap in compliance. The rise in accessibility-related legal cases further emphasizes the need for proactive strategies.

Security and Governance Regulations

Navigating security and governance regulations has become increasingly challenging as legal requirements grow more complex. Industries dealing with age-restricted products like CBD and tobacco face stricter enforcement of age verification laws, with studies showing over 70% of online retailers fail to implement robust systems. This exposes businesses to legal penalties and reputational risks.

Other governance regulations require businesses to facilitate secure internal reporting channels and handle content takedown requests responsibly.

The EU Whistleblower Directive adds another layer of complexity, requiring companies to establish secure, anonymous channels for internal reporting of misconduct.

Wiretapping laws have also expanded in scope, now applying to practices like session recording. In 2024, lawsuits surged against companies accused of violating these laws by failing to secure user consent, emphasizing the importance of transparent data collection practices.

The Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA) continues to hold businesses accountable for sharing video viewing data without explicit consent. With potential fines of $2,500 per user, the stakes are high for ensuring robust privacy measures.

The Challenge of Fragmentation

Managing compliance across multiple regulatory domains often involves deploying separate tools for cookie consent management, data subject requests, accessibility assessments, vulnerability reporting, whistleblowing, and more.

This piecemeal approach can lead to operational inefficiencies, increased costs, and challenges in keeping up with evolving regulations. Businesses need a cohesive approach to simplify their compliance efforts.
