What are the implications
for Minnesota business of
the new FTC and Commerce
reports on privacy? What
are recent trends in HHS OCR
enforcement of
HIPAA/HITECH? These and
many other questions will be
addressed at the sixth
annual Twin Cities Privacy
Retreat. This is the one
time each year when TCPN
members spend a full day
together in a relaxed
setting trading notes about
the coming year's priorities
and learning from topical
experts.
The retreat will take place
on Friday, 25
February, 2011. |

This year Nymity is offering
all Retreat registrants
three months of free access
to its service. When you

you approve us forwarding

Do you want to get in the
Retreat for free? The first

correctly answer a question
posed by Nymity that can
only be answered by
searching its database will
have their Retreat fee
refunded. When your

training session to learn
how to best use its query
filters, and will notify you
by e-mail when your trial is
coming to an end. |
