Everyone’s interested in privacy, but perhaps no one takes it more seriously than privacy professionals, especially those in the banking, insurance and financial service industries. Mix in social media, and marketing, and the conversation gets very interesting.
That’s what I found as I prepared a speech, slideshow and presentation guide for the International Association of Privacy Professionals Practical Privacy Conference here in Chicago.
Thanks so much to Beth Marshall, CIPP/US, Marketing Director Zurich NA, for inviting me to speak and for doing a fantastic job managing the program!
That’s Beth on the far right, along with me and the other panelists Dan Burks, CIPP/US, Chief Privacy Officer/Director of Vendor Risk Management, U.S. Bank; Michael O’Neil, Partner, DLA Piper LLP (US) and Richard O’Brien, President & CEO, Payment Pathways. Here’s our panel description, along with links to all presentations.

Social Media and Private Banks Survey
A survey on the social media activities of 50 leading private banks found that most had developed “amateurish” social media strategies, were “hibernating” on Facebook and displaying “tokenism attitudes” to Twitter and YouTube, according to Assetinum.com, an independent financial information portal for investors.
At the heart of the system is the Dynamics ePlate mobile payment device (Mullen says he no longer calls it a credit card), a paper-thin electronic credit card. It has an electronic stripe like any traditional credit card. It also has programmable buttons that can alter the usage of the card, depending on which button the user selects. You could, for instance, use a card as a credit card, or push a button and use it as an ATM card.
