While data quality ensures information is accurate and reliable for decision-making, data compliance guarantees that handling meets legal and regulatory standards like GDPR or CCPA. Enterprises often fail by treating these as separate silos, yet they are inherently codependent; poor data quality undermines legal reporting, while non-compliant data carries massive liability regardless of its accuracy. Success requires shifting from a reactive "fix-it" mindset to an integrated governance framework that treats quality and compliance as a single, unified asset. By bridging this gap, organizations transform data from a potential legal risk into a high-grade fuel for competitive growth and operational trust.
