The Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) is the world's largest organization serving the professional and business interests of attorneys who practice in the legal departments of corporations, associations, nonprofits and other private-sector organizations around the globe.
ACC's Information Governance network's goal is to:
Provide in-house counsel with a forum for discussing, collaborating, and addressing common information governance challenges that affect most corporations.
Educate in-house counsel about the changing nature of how information and data are used within an organization and identify the risks, cross-functional challenges, costs, legal responsibilities, and opportunities this represents.
Develop and communicate practice policies, procedures, and best practice approaches for in-house counsel to work collaboratively to ensure the proper and legal control of information.
Empower in-house counsel to provide relevant, helpful, and up-to-date advice on a broad spectrum of IG challenges to ensure that corporate information is protected, managed, and retrievable in accordance with legal and business requirements and meet business needs for streamlined access to information, data analytics, and the requisite technology to meet these needs across the enterprise.
Help in-house counsel understand the benefits of looking at organizational information across the enterprise and reduces risk associated with siloed approaches
Many record retention schedules started from within hardcopy, paper-based records programs. Yet today more than 95% of the documents organizations create or receive are sourced in digital format. Programs based on paper-centric record retention schedules are much more difficult to execute and ensure compliance, when electronic information is the dominant format. Is your retention schedule in need of an update? In this webinar, Mark Diamond and Tom Mighell from Contoural, along with Stacey Shaw from Careington, will discuss how organizations can create modern and more compliant records retention schedules that better handle both paper and especially electronic information. They will also cover how to privacy-enable your schedule.

Existing and emerging privacy laws limit the length of time companies can retain personal information, and these requirements should be detailed in a data retention policy. Creating these policies quickly raises questions: What should be included in a data retention policy and how is it executed? How long can personal information be retained, and how can this retention be made defensible? How are conflicts avoided? This session will address creating compliant, executable data retention policies that address privacy concerns.
