The Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA) establishes personal data privacy rights for Virginia residents. Among other things, it requires for-profit companies (that are not subject to GLB or HIPAA) that collect and process personal data must ensure individuals' rights to access, correct, and delete their data. It also requires individuals be notified of the data being collected, and be given the chance to opt-out of the sale and processing of their personal information for targeted advertising purposes. This course provides a high-level overview of the VCDPA for general employees of data controllers and data processors. It will help them understand the purpose and provisions of the law so they can apply the policies and procedures their employer has developed for VCDPA compliance, and aid them in spotting potential violations as they go about their day-to-day work.This course was developed with subject matter support provided by The Potomac Law Group, PLLC.
