Data minimization is a privacy principle that dictates that organizations should collect and retain only the minimum amount of personal data necessary to fulfill a specific and legitimate purpose. It requires that organizations limit the collection, processing, and storage of personal data to what is directly relevant and proportionate to the stated purpose, and delete or anonymize any data that is no longer needed. Data minimization helps reduce the potential risks associated with excessive data collection and processing.
