Today’s data privacy leaders are navigating a puzzle of heightened expectations — global regulations and artificial intelligence, to name a few. Each new challenge adds another piece to an already intricate picture. 

But what if they didn’t have to solve it alone?  

The heads of data privacy at 30+  of the world’s largest companies have joined the Data Privacy Board, a home for unbiased, real-time benchmarking. 

This private, vendor-free peer group offers year-round, expertly facilitated discussions and insights to help data privacy leaders stay ahead, adapt swiftly, and make informed decisions. Designed for busy professionals, it ensures every interaction is valuable. 

But how do we actually solve the problems keeping privacy up at night? Let’s walk-through how we support senior data privacy leaders every day. 

1. Personalized, Full-time Support to Solve Your Biggest Challenges

Our Membership Directors act as expert advisors offering personalized, full-time support, and they don’t stop until members get the answers they need. 

As Membership Director for the Data Privacy Board, Rachel Wallis assesses members’ programs, priorities, and roadblocks and identifies areas where the community can help.  

She knows the exact challenges members are facing and how to facilitate the one-on-one connections and nowhere-else conversations to solve them. 

 All members need to do is ask a question, and Membership Directors take care of the rest.

2. We Turn Your Data Privacy Questions into Immediate Value

The only thing certain in the privacy space is uncertainty. It can often feel like piecing together a puzzle without having the full picture in front of you. 

When you’re constantly facing new hurdles and demands, you need answers in hours or days, not weeks. That’s why the Data Privacy Board offers fast, efficient, and unlimited service. 

Plus, members set the agenda. Unlike conferences or webinars, where the conversations are designed to increase attendance, our calls and discussion topics are hand-curated by Membership Directors on demand based on members’ most pressing needs.

3. How Members Use Unique Access to Expert Knowledge for a Competitive Edge

The resources that are available through the Data Privacy Board can’t be found anywhere else. But what does personalized support look like for members at a practical level? 

The real-world solutions come from real conversations with peers who truly understand the complexities. 

Recently, the head of privacy compliance at a retail company, reached out through the community private question and answer forum to ask members what regulatory tracking tools they’re using.

This member was looking for a solution that not only covers regulatory updates in the privacy, security, and AI domains, but can also be expanded for other areas of the business.

Several members shared the tools they’re using or considering, such as Cube and OneTrust, and candidly provided feedback on their experiences.

Tracking regulatory developments is one challenge, but operationalizing them is another. That’s why we frequently bring members together for confidential discussions to benchmark compliance strategies for all the national and global laws coming down the pike.

There are a lot of experts who can tell you what they think will happen, but only your peers in the Data Privacy Board can tell you what they’re actually doing.

4. Answers to Your Questions Come from Leaders at Some of the World’s Biggest Companies

Not all peer groups set strict membership criteria. In fact, many have little or no restrictions around seniority or company size. 

Only heads of data privacy at large enterprises and their senior team members are allowed in The Data Privacy Board. We don’t allow the conversations to be diluted by insights that aren’t relevant to your role.  

Above all, we never allow vendors, agencies, or consultants to participate (Though, we talk about them all the time). It’s paramount to keeping the community unbiased and candid.  

Every answer in our community comes from people like you — senior leaders at companies like yours, with problems like yours. 

Data Privacy Board members include: American Airlines, AT&T, UPS, Expedia Group, Chick-fil-A, Intel, Workday, New Balance, and more.  

5. A Chance to Connect with Your Peers In-Person at our Board Meetings

On top of the year-round support members have access to, we also bring senior leaders together in person at our Board Meetings.  

We know there are a lot of conferences and events to choose from, but our Board Meetings stand out — people have even postponed honeymoons to be there!  

It’s a unique opportunity to connect with other senior decision-makers running programs like yours. Just the community, vendors are never allowed to join, and the conversations are always off-the-record.  

At the Fall 2024 Board Meeting, members benchmarked regulations, website tracking, risk metrics, and more.
