Join Mac Murray & Shuster privacy attorneys Aaron Parry and Josh Stevens for a timely update exploring key legal and operational aspects of data governance. This session will provide a practical overview of how federal and state privacy laws address: 

  • Cookie Data Collection - how to determine which data cookies to capture
  • Data Governance - implementation strategies to align policies and procedures with regulatory expectations
  • Document Retention – understanding retention requirements and best practices

Aaron and Josh will explore how these requirements vary across different regulatory frameworks and share actionable strategies for implementing effective policies and procedures. Whether you're refining your organization's privacy posture or building a compliance program from the ground up, this update will provide valuable guidance to help align internal policies with evolving legal standards and ensure compliance in a complex data landscape.

In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, traditional records retention schedules are no longer sufficient. As organizations face increasing recordkeeping requirements, emerging privacy rules, and the need to embrace AI, retention policies must evolve from a “check-the-box” task into a strategic policy that drives compliance, eliminates data minimization conflicts, and enhances productivity. Join Kaye Cyrus, Director of Legal and Compliance at Office Practicum, and Mark Diamond and Tom Mighell from Contoural, for this insightful Webcast to learn how to create a modern, compliant, and easier-to-execute records retention schedule. 

Key Takeaways: 

• Understand the elements of a modern schedule: Integrate compliance, privacy, and business value into your records retention policy. 
• Resolve data minimization and recordkeeping conflicts: Resolve potential conflicts between retention rules and privacy data minimization mandates. 
• Enable automation: Design a schedule that supports automated classification and disposition for improved efficiency. 
• Foster AI Alignment: Learn how a schedule can either help or hurt compliant use of generative AI. 
• Build consensus: Learn strategies to align business groups on what information to retain, how long to keep it, and what can and should be defensibly deleted.

This session will broadly cover issues relevant to Canadian general counsel around the rollback of DEI programs in the US following Executive Orders from President Trump. The session will focus on the ripple effect for Canadian companies (including Canadian subsidiaries of US parent companies) through the lens of governance, litigation risk, and legal compliance with Canadian law.  It will serve as a refresher for both provincial and federal human rights obligations (and proactive programs) and the current state of employment equity legislation. The program will also address new concerns for employers including business immigration and employee travel, particularly for diverse employees.
