To survive in today’s fast-changing landscape, companies will need to balance consumers’ often competing desire for privacy, security and convenience.
In The New Rules of Consumer Privacy, FaceFirst CEO Peter Trepp establishes the new paradigm for the privacy contract between consumers and organizations that balances these three vital concerns.
Cogent and forward-thinking, futuristic yet pragmatic. Trepp writes with considerable knowledge and authority.

Here’s what some prominent thought leaders are saying about the future of privacy:
My recommendation to business leaders is, think hard about what you’re offering vs. what you’re asking for. If you’re asking for a lot, you better be delivering a lot of perceived value on the part of the consumer.
Companies MUST assure customers that their data is secure and will not be shared with unscrupulous actors or is vulnerable to breaches. Convenience is only meaningful if customer data is protected.
I think the definition of privacy has changed much more than that it’s been abandoned; privacy is still something we value and safeguard even as we open up more of our lives to others.
We certainly want to have some control over who can listen, and how that information can be used, but in order to maximize a voice-interactive AI we are going to have to allow that AI to be a constant part of the conversation.
