Data Privacy and Security Training
Empower your employees to proactively address privacy concerns and minimize the risk of violations under data privacy laws such as the GDPR and CCPA.
Train. Reinforce. Protect.
Traliant Learning Topics pair foundational, attorney-authored training with reinforcement content, including Micro Reels that keep key concepts fresh throughout the year. Always protected, not more time in training.
Get data privacy decisions right.
Traliant’s Global Data Privacy Awareness Learning Topic prepares employees to recognize privacy risks, handle personal data responsibly, and respond appropriately when issues arise.
In a cinematic, TV-style format, the foundational course shows how routine workplace interactions, such as sharing files, accessing systems, or using AI tools, can quickly create privacy risks.
Built for real-world decision-making, the 30-minute course builds the awareness and judgment employees need to spot warning signs and take the right action. In these moments, learners are equipped to:
- Recognize how personal data is collected, used, and shared
- Identify privacy risks before they become incidents
- Understand data subject rights and when to escalate requests
- Apply key principles like Privacy by Design in daily work
- Handle data responsibly across systems, teams, and tools
The result: fewer mistakes, stronger data protection, and more defensible global compliance.
Organizations can further strengthen outcomes with additional training components designed to reinforce and sustain behavior change over time. A 12-minute refresher course helps reinforce key concepts after initial training, while short, 2-minute Data Privacy Micro Reels provide focused, in-the-moment reinforcement to support real-world application.

A Learning Topic is everything you need to cover one subject, like preventing harassment or keeping data safe. It’s more than a single course. It pairs attorney-authored training with reinforcement tools that keep the protection going after the course ends.
How does it work?
The full course meets your requirements, giving a documented, defensible record. Reinforcement tools keep that protection working between annual trainings. Pick your Learning Topic, roll it out, and it keeps working all year.
What’s in a Learning Topic?
Reinforcement tools vary by topic, so each Learning Topic includes the mix that fits its subject.
