Privacy, Please! Keeping Up with Data Protection Laws
1:00pm EST
Thursday, January 18th, 2024
Data breaches reached record highs in 2023 and states across the U.S. are giving individuals more rights and controls over their own personal data, highlighting the critical importance of a strong data governance, information governance, and privacy program to properly safeguard, protect, and manage personal information.
However, keeping up with ever-expanding data privacy laws continues to be a challenge for organizations of all sizes and industries, costing valuable time and money among frequently limited and strained resources.
For those looking to thrive and not just survive in this new regulatory landscape, join Gimmal as we host Tom Corey, Director within Harbor Global’s Information Governance practice for a live webinar.
We will:
– Review data privacy updates across 13 U.S. states, from the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) to the Senate Bill (SB) 475 in Texas, and more
– Explore the nuances and implications of revised data protection laws on your existing data and information
management practices
– Provide a privacy framework for you to implement and mature within your information governance program
Register today! Submit your questions ahead of time to get them answered during our live Q&A session!

Lunch & Learn Webinar with Laserfiche + Gimmal, Hosted by Government Technology
1:00pm EST
Tuesday, December 12th, 2023
Evolving standards around accountability and transparency are driving the push toward digital document management systems.
Without an efficient records management strategy in place, responding to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) or other records requests can eat up hours of staff time and lead to lags in responses. With a smart, centralized records system, teams are better equipped to find files, keep track of versions and share content quickly and efficiently.
Join Government Technology, Laserfiche and Gimmal for a live webinar on December 12, 2023, at 10 AM PT/1 PM ET to explore the tools helping agencies stay compliant and meet transparency demands.
You’ll Learn:
- How to build a unified system for managing physical and digital documents

- Records management practices that make it easy to find information and collaborate
