From professional to personal platforms: A social media guide to protect your company and customers

Join Porter Wright along with the Southwestern Ohio Association of Corporate Counsel for an update on managing the risks and benefits of social media in the post-pandemic world.

Topics of focus will include:

• Discoverability of social media posts
• The employer’s responsibility to preserve social media posts on personal devices
• Employment concerns around termination related to social media activity and a discussion of company policies on use of social media
• Fair use as applied to copyrighted works on social media platforms
