Session by PrivaTech Consulting: Service Provider Oversight for Privacy Best Practice

This session will cover five key privacy and data security considerations that records management professionals should be aware of when the processing of personal information is outsourced:

1. A strong privacy management framework.

2. Areas of risk and controls to address them.

3. Sound information management practices.

4. A well thought out breach response protocol.

5. A contract with appropriate privacy/security clauses.

Whether personal and confidential information is transferred or made accessible to a service provider, it is critical that the records controller remains accountable for ensuring data is well protected. This session will offer practical tips on what contractual clauses should address and how to mitigate your risks with confidence. Come with all your questions about how to oversee service provider relationships effectively, as there will be an opportunity for discussion and leaning from each other!
