MediaPRO Releases New Training Focused on Looming California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)
BOTHELL, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–MediaPRO, a leading provider of security and privacy awareness training,
announced today the release of new employee training focused on the data
privacy requirements and responsibilities within the looming California
Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
Companies doing business in the state of California that include the
collection, use, or selling of consumers’ personal information will be
required to comply with the CCPA effective January 1, 2020. This
regulation carries important obligations — and penalties for
noncompliance — for affected organizations.
Industry research shows as many as 86
percent of U.S. companies describe CCPA compliance as a
“work-in-progress,” with MediaPRO’s 2019
Eye on Privacy Report finding that 46% of U.S. employees
have never heard of the regulation. Though eight months from the
compliance deadline, privacy professionals at impacted companies are
likely to have their hands full preparing for the CCPA.
MediaPRO’s CCPA training emphasizes the importance of the personal data
rights the CCPA bestows on California residents. Using interactive
elements and real-life scenarios, the training teaches employees what
constitutes personal information, how the CCPA dictates personal data of
California residents should be handled, and the consequences of failing
to comply with these requirements.
Beyond following the letter of the law, the goal of the training is to
instill a sense of responsibility for data privacy that employees can
carry beyond the office.
“Our CCPA training was built to align with the new California law, but
it goes beyond mere compliance to provide employees with the
foundational skills they’ll need to protect personal information, no
matter how the laws change,” MediaPRO’s Chief Learning Officer Tom
Pendergast said. “Today, privacy is so important — and laws are changing
so rapidly — that it’s critical for employees to develop the skills
needed to protect private information.”
MediaPRO’s CCPA training will come bundled with the company’s Privacy
Awareness TrainingPack, a comprehensive suite of privacy awareness
training courses and reinforcement materials, such as videos and posters.

Apollo Green to distribute Humboldt Seed Company clonal cannabis genetics to Germany, Portugal and Australia
SAN FRANCISCO, April 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Humboldt Seed Company (HSC), California’s leading cannabis seed producer, has announced a partnership with Canadian-based Apollo Green to make eight breeder cuts available to researchers, licensed commercial cultivators and home growers in legal markets worldwide. This first-to-market clonal genetics release is a significant milestone and will expand access to distinctive, high-quality cannabis genetics in both established and emerging global markets including Germany, Portugal and Australia.
The curated, breeder-verified selection includes pioneering triploid genetics, such as OG Triploid and Donutz Triploid alongside the legendary cult classic Blueberry Muffin. Also available are All Gas OG with a THC content of 21% and four high-THC strains in the 30-35% range: Golden Sands, Guzzlerz, Jelly Donutz and Orange Creampop. These selections represent the top .01% from HSC’s extensive California pheno-hunting program.
Exports will begin in May under Apollo Green’s Canadian federal cannabis license. All shipments have Canadian phytosanitary certification, ensuring plants have been inspected, and are clean and free of pests.
“Access for all to quality genetics has been our core focus since the beginning,” said HSC Co-founder and Chief Science Officer, Benjamin Lind. “Our science-based approach to breeding aligns perfectly with Apollo Green’s high standards and we are excited to be able to extend these hand-selected cuts to a wider audience, especially at this pivotal time where we’re seeing positive regulatory changes globally.”
Oisin Tierney, Apollo Green Director of Business Development, said, “California has long been recognized for setting industry standards, and we are proud to play a role in bringing these esteemed genetics to cultivators worldwide. The triploids are especially noteworthy in terms of the unprecedented potential for enhanced plant vigor, higher yields, shorter flowering times and superior returns for solventless extraction.”
