The DSAR Deluge - September 28, 2022

The DSAR Deluge - Is Your Retention Program Ready for a Stress Test? New Research - What Legal Executives are Looking for in 2022

Sponsored by Exterro 

A Data Subject Access Request (DSAR) is a submission by an individual (data subject) to a business asking to know what personal information of theirs has been collected and stored as well as how it is being used.

Ahhh, the good old days, when data subject requests just meant searching everywhere you have consumer data. On January 1, 2023, the California exemption for employee data from CCPA expires. At this point employees and former employees can ask for the personal data you hold about them. This means a tremendous amount of headache, not only for HR and recruiting, but also for the legal and privacy department. While the biggest fines garner headlines, such as the €746 million fine issued against Amazon in July 2021 for failing to process personal data in compliance with the GDPR, enforcement isn’t limited to the big players. As organizations continue to collect and manage data, it is critical that they understand the data retention requirements within their jurisdictions and the periods in which the data needs to be retained and respond to subject access requests most efficiently and defensibly.

Please join this webcast and explore:

What do employee DSARs look like and how to address them?

Rethinking Law Firm Culture and Hiring After the Great Resignation

Sponsored by Smokeball 

After the Great Resignation of 2021, it's still a job-seeker's market - even at law firms. While most legal professionals working at small and boutique law firms don't expect record breaking salaries and bonuses offered by Am Law 100 firms, they're making their voices heard in other arenas, pushing for hybrid schedules and work-life balance.

So, what makes your law firm stand out to candidates in 2022, 2023 and beyond? And how can you retain your team by building a supportive structure and culture?

Join Jordan Turk, practicing attorney and Smokeball legal technology adviser, for this free CLE webinar. She'll share how technology and modern work practices help law firms evolve to meet this unprecedented moment in law firm hiring and culture.

Speaker:

Jordan Turk - a practicing attorney in Texas, and the Legal Technology Advisor at Smokeball.
