A strange title yes…. But what do all these have in common? Personal information! Here I bring the low down on the amazing Data Protection Intensive Conference 2022. Some great hot topics and debates with great keynote speakers!
One of the sessions even made me want to interview my nephew Noah who makes his first appearance on Privacy as a Foreign Language. His understanding of privacy or data is very minimal but he does know certain personal information about himself so how do we make sure as Aunties, Uncles, Mums or Dads help him stay safe in the big wide world!
Any feedback is welcome, make sure you like and follow the podcast or even leave a comment.

Episode One is here. It introduces the Data Doctor and who I am. It is my first attempt at an episode and it is a huge achievement for me to say I did it! I want to help people be more comfortable with data protection and all things privacy related.
I hope you like it and am sorry about the background noise, still getting used to the editing. My dogs and nephew wanted to get in on the action!

The Policy Boss is the creator of the 'Data Doctor' podcast. We called it 'Privacy as a Foreign Language'. We aim to talk about any subject or topic and make it more digestible for the everyday user. Let's face it no one knows what 'territorial scope' is right? or the 'OECD Guidelines'? EXACTLY that is why we are here to help!
