paid training and client data protection

Dec 09, 2021 22:19

Things done today:

1. Sent out a lease for a 1-bedroom apartment. I'm also trying to get the prospects who balked at street noise to send me a list of questions that I can send to the current tenants of a different apartment, because I am not going to hand out tenants' private data just because someone wants to ask questions about their unit. Confidentiality is important!

(We know so much stuff about tenants, seriously, it's ridiculous. I could probably pull identity theft scams on quite a lot of people if I were inclined to crime. I mean, I wouldn't, because what the actual fuck, but the point remains that I have access to a lot of personal and financial information and a responsibility to keep that information safe.

(Tax prep is similar in terms of confidentiality requirements, and do not even get me started on HIPAA. When I worked reception at the health garage, we couldn't even admit if we recognized people's names without a signed client permission form that named a specific person (who provided government-issued photo ID to verify their identity) as okay to receive that information, because a questioner might infer client status from that familiarity -- which, given that the health garage deals in addiction recovery, is information that many people prefer to keep private. *wry*)

2. Updated the downtown sublet form again and uploaded it to our website. Fixed some other stuff on the website while I was already poking around backstage.

3. Video review. Uploaded one finished video to YouTube and our website (as per Miss California's directions) -- I will get the other three tomorrow.

4. Paid training virtual seminar for Not the IRS. Also did some at-my-own-pace paid virtual training, so that's about 2 hours down. I'll see about doing another round tomorrow evening.

5. Wrote a grocery list and prepped to buy groceries tomorrow after work. Hopefully my prescription toothpaste will also be ready by that point, and I will buy gas once I'm done because my car is sending me mournful "low fuel" messages, poor baby.

6. Finished reading Nick's latest witch cozy mystery novel, which was a lot of fun and lays some groundwork for more character development stuff in the next installments, as well as some cool worldbuilding about the nature of magic in this universe. :) If you want to comment on this post, you can do so over here on Dreamwidth, where there are currently (
