The Privacy Insider 

How to Embrace Data Privacy and Join the Next Wave of Trusted Brands

Privacy Insider Book (mock w shadow)
Data Privacy For All

Why Data Privacy, Why Now?

Osano's CEO, Arlo Gilbert, doesn't think that you should feel left out of the loop when it comes to data privacy. Nor does he think it should be complicated to just do the right thing. That’s why he wrote The Privacy Insider. 

About the Book

The Privacy Insider

In this soon-to-be-published book, Arlo lays out the relevant information for you to understand and operationalize data privacy in simple, clear language that focuses on what’s relevant to businesses seeking to do the right thing.

Part I

In part one of the book, get acquainted with how we got here — from the first real instances of privacy and privacy laws in the 1700s to the dot-com era and entrance of third-party cookies all the way to today's data privacy laws and what they mean for you.

Part II

In the second half, Arlo reviews the necessary components of a privacy program, discussing the why behind each one and some of the steps you should take to build your privacy program from the ground up.

About the Author

Arlo Gilbert, Founding CEO of Osano

Arlo Gilbert is the CEO and cofounder of Osano. An Austin, Texas, native, he has been building software companies for more than twenty-five years in categories including telecom, payments, procurement, and compliance.  
In early 2018, Arlo and fellow cofounder Scott Hertel watched in disbelief as members of the US Congress questioned technology leaders about online data privacy. It was clear then, just as it’s clear now, that even the best and brightest officials lacked essential knowledge about how data is stored and shared—and if they were confused, then businesses must be as well.  

That’s why Arlo and Scott founded Osano. Whether through his work as the CEO of Osano, as a thought leader on data privacy, or as a writer and speaker, Arlo has made it his mission to make it easy for businesses to do the right thing when it comes to data privacy.
