Dykema launches Virtual Privacy Officer program

Dykema announced on Monday 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; and

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

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. The practice group also offers an experienced Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA) Team to help companies defend against BIPA-related class action suits. These are just a few of the multitude of services Dykema’s Data Privacy and Cybersecurity Practice Group offers to clients.

As the data privacy and cybersecurity landscape continues to evolve, Dykema is committed to providing clients with a holistic approach to help them navigate challenges with customizable, organizational-specific solutions to achieve their business objectives.
