Episode 115 - The Digital Advertising Ecosystem: Privacy and Compliance Challenges
Frost Brown Todd PodcastShow Notes
Many of us wonder how the internet knows so much about us. We are barraged with tailored ads as we use the internet. How does this happen? How does this affect the compliance risks of businesses and the data privacy of us all?
Dan Frechtling, CEO of Boltive, explores the digital advertising ecosystem in Episode 115. Explore the sub-terrain of the internet, how it creates advertising revenue that is the business model of many tech firms, how unwanted ads and mal-advertising encroach, how it affects our personal privacy, and how regulation increasingly requires businesses to offer consumers the choice of refusing the sale or sharing of their information. Learn how businesses can minimize risk and avoid compliance violations and how consumers can make privacy choices within their control.

Why do businesses create cookies for their websites – and what choices can visitors make when a popup asks us to choose? Can chatbots write privacy policies for businesses? How can we determine if a website shares personal information we provide to it – and if so, for what purposes?

Data clutter – we keep our homes tidy, at least some of us do. But what about digital data? It accumulates and grows over time. Unlike hard copy files, which can be pitched or sent to long-term (expensive) storage, data is silent and unobservable (except perhaps to IT personnel). Explore how organizations amass vast amounts of data containing personal information, some highly sensitive. There it resides, posing serious risks to organizations and individuals.
