Firm's Data Privacy and Cybersecurity Practice launches Virtual Privacy Officer

Dykema recently announced the launch of Virtual Privacy Officer (VPO) from the firm’s Data Privacy and Cybersecurity Practice Group. Dykema’s VPO enables clients to manage privacy, regulatory, and compliance obligations in one streamlined program. The program features 24/7 access to the most up-to-date tools and resources available for privacy and/or security matters.

As data privacy compliance challenges continue to increase for companies, Dykema’s VPO allows organizations to focus on day-to-day business knowing that solutions to privacy and cybersecurity questions are easily accessible if/when an issue may arise. Some of the features of VPO include:

• Customizable tiered pricing options.

• Point-of-contact for internal client legal and business stakeholders.

• Intake, coordination, and response to data subject rights requests.

• Drafting of and advising on language for internal privacy policies and procedures, and a variety of data protection agreements and privacy notices.

• Advising client information security team regarding the application and scope of applicable laws.

• Directing and coordinating regulatory filings.

• Developing and conducting employee and independent contractor training.

• Internal breach management and coaching.

• Coordinating with vendors to accomplish data mapping, implementation of software products, and addressing incidents.

• Coordinating with Dykema firm resources to develop applicable law analysis, 50-state/international law surveys, large-scale contract review and mapping,
and ongoing continuous regulatory action analysis.

• Acting as a client representative in discussions with vendors, customers, and regulators.

“Our approach and emphasis on providing extraordinary service to our clients led us to the development of Dykema’s VPO,” said Cinthia Granados Motley, director of Dykema’s Global Data Privacy and Cybersecurity Practice. “Exposure resulting from privacy and cybersecurity risks is a paramount concern for nearly every company in today’s business climate. Organizations can confidently rely on Dykema’s VPO as their go-to privacy and cybersecurity resource when looking for the best guidance possible for their business.”

Dykema’s new VPO service comes off the heels of the firm’s data privacy and cybersecurity group’s formation of its Pixel and AdTech Privacy Task Force, which assists global corporations with advertising and marketing efforts while navigating the complexities of data usage and exchange and the related regulations governing consumer data.
