  • The Blessing of CCPA | Rafael Moscatel
    Top 3 Quotes
    • “The more that you can show your customers that you're being a good steward with their data, the more they're likely to trust you. And from a reputational standpoint and a branding standpoint, that's always one of the best benefits and one of the reasons that consumers will choose one product or service over the other.”
