Overview

Adam Kardash and Michael Fekete will be speaking at a workshop organized by IT World Canada as part of the CanadianCIO Executive Education Series. The workshop will be held at the offices of Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP.

Canada is enacting comprehensive anti-spam legislation [CASL] affecting all organizations that send emails, text messages and other commercial electronic messages in the course of their marketing and other business activities – that means virtually every company in Canada. CASL also contains rules for the installation of computer programs.

This workshop will provide chief privacy officers and corporate executives responsible for CASL adherence with the following:

  • A snapshot of the crucial compliance issues
  • Timelines of the legislation coming into full force
  • An overview of important consent, notice and unsubscribe requirements
  • An outline of the enforcement provisions including penalties for non-compliance and the due diligence defense
  • Practical steps that your organization can take to ensure compliance and other risk mitigating strategies
