Government Accountability: Transparency and Privacy
How does New York City government encourage transparency and protect New Yorkers’ privacy? The City leverages large amounts of information to offer its services, and New York State's Freedom of Information Law (FOIL) and New York City's Open Data Law require the City to make certain information and records public. At the same time, the City’s Identifying Information Law makes sure it uses and shares identifying information responsibly. Come learn more about how FOIL, the Open Data Law, and the Identifying Information Law work together to enhance government accountability and build public trust. This session will be presented by attorneys from the Mayor’s Office of Information Privacy and the NYC Department of IT & Telecommunications.
