On May 14, we attended the Luma Digital Media Summit, an event that separates itself from similar events through its sheer volume of heavy-hitters, and the ideas these heavy-hitters bring to the table. There were CEO’s, COOs, and EVPs from The New York Times, Axios, Snap, Verizon, Accenture, Publicis, and GroupM, among others. The keynotes and firesides had information — good information — and, in general, we can report that the future of the digital…
You’ve got a mobile app and lots of happy users. That’s good. But one surefire way to submarine this good thing is to be non-compliant in your data privacy policy.

Let’s take a closer look at the consequences of non-compliance, so you can better avoid that scenario. What are the penalties for violating privacy regulations? If you…
There are two types of data in this world: the data that can identify an individual, and everything else. When it comes to data that can identify people, think things like postal addresses and phone numbers. When it comes to “everything else,” think IP addresses and location.
