Our first monthly PETed Sip & Chat hosted by Janelle Hsia! Join us the 3rd Friday of every month at 11:00AM ET throughout 2025.
Despite all the advantages and benefits of AI, most of us are at the beginning of our AI governance journey. We need to learn how to handle and protect data during its use. Let’s talk about some of the key aspects of AI governance.
Join our IOPD Privacy Engineering & Technology Education Discussion (PETed) Series! The format of the webinar will be a recorded 10-minute introduction followed by a 40-minute informal discussion and interaction with members of the IOPD. The goal will be a discussion on how to solve a specific privacy problem or privacy related resource topic and the latest implementation techniques for some of the biggest challenges like synthetic data, zero-knowledge proofs, homomorphic encryption, and translucent databases.
As privacy professionals we know the dark secrets of corporations and what they do with our personal data. Considering this, how do you make decisions about whether you will give up personal information for a discount, free tickets, or better prices?
Are you a privacy professional that has an opinion on how privacy programs are being administered? Are you frustrated with people’s perception of how to protect their data vs what they actually do about it? Then you have to deal with the organizations unwillingness to actually protect people’s data - right?
Reductive Security is a refreshing and novel approach to privacy and security. We live in the era of additive security, in which security vendors and practitioners promote adding more things to mitigate the proliferation of data breaches and security incidents. More third-party providers, more privileged access, more PII collected, more lines of code. . . yet data breaches and system compromises continue unabated.

AI shines in areas where it can enhance efficiency, uncover insights, and support human creativity. It’s a versatile powerhouse that complements human ingenuity rather than replacing it. Are you thinking of AI for a specific purpose?
As privacy professionals, we see the worst of the worst when it comes to how companies use and abuse personal data. Come share your concerning stories as we explore issues such as algorithmic bias in hiring, surveillance overreach, AI-driven misinformation, and automation that doesn’t work!
Modern vehicles have evolved far beyond transportation—they're now sophisticated IoT endpoints collecting vast amounts of personal data. We will discuss data security and privacy risks modern cars pose to individuals and companies -- from data leakage to 4th amendment exception; device-centric universal opt out mechanisms; car-specific IoT recommendations from the IoT Advisory Board to the US Dept of Commerce; Louisiana's new law to disable connected app tracking & the "Disconnect by Reset Protocol"; and more.
As AI tools become a normal part of school life, tracking learning, behavior, and even emotions, kids are being watched more than ever. Are their rights being protected? In this Sip & Chat, we’ll unpack how AI is changing education, what it means for children's privacy, and how new laws like COPPA updates and FERPA battles in California are reshaping the rules. Let’s talk about consent, control, and how to keep kids’ data safe in the age of AI.
You can’t fix what you can’t measure so let’s talk about how to reduce your risk profile and refine your programs. Do you need to gather inclusion feedback and track other sensitive personal data elements? Are you looking for candid feedback so that you can move your any program forward? During this Sip & Chat we will discuss how using a tool that ensure anonymity and privacy but still allows you to track engagement is critical when insights require people to trust the process and ensure their data is safe.
Tracking technologies are evolving faster than most governance models can adapt. Pixels, cookies, APIs, and server-side integrations often behave in ways that diverge from what policies assume and create blind spots in consent, inventories, and operational control. This session examines recurring technical and operational patterns observed in practice, the reasons governance breaks down, and emerging practices that help privacy teams restore visibility and accountability.
