A Community Of Privacy Round table discussions addressing the impact of the new provisions under the Gramm-Leach Bliley Act will take place in late March and early April. Involved in the discussion program planning are Blackwell Sanders attorneys with experience in e-business, banking, securities, insurance, European Union data protection directives, and health care. The breakfast meetings are scheduled for March 27 and March 28 in our Kansas City office, April 4 in our St. Louis office, and April 5 in our Omaha, Neb. office.
Space is limited for each session.
Collecting, storing and transferring personal and commercial information have never been easier. Consequently, it is becoming more difficult to secure that data, and the risks from failing to do are growing at an exponential rate. It is paramount for businesses, whatever its size or nature, protect the privacy of clients, policyholders, patients and employees. The Blackwell Sanders discussions will include suggestions on how companies can proactively approach the Gramm-Leach Bliley Act regulations, how to respond to organizational resistance and how to prioritize the mission critical steps necessary before these regulations take effect during the summer of 2001. This newsletter is intended only to provide general information in summary form on legal and business topics of the day.
