Building Trust by Respecting User Privacy

Data privacy, as a concept, tends to make us want to put our heads in the sand. It encompasses so much across our organizations—marketing, legal, IT, and development—that it can often feel like a game of chicken.

In this episode, CI’s VP, Managing Director Christopher Williams speaks with Chris Brown, Executive Director of Orlando Family Stage, about how advocates can make a stronger case for arts funding by highlighting the industry’s vital role in boosting local economies, fostering community well-being, and enriching society.
