Support Canadian regulatory readiness, including helping teams prepare for inquiries, consultations, regulatory submissions, customer escalations, and market-specific questions.

Develop contract structures, templates, and playbooks that address privacy and data protection requirements and lead the review and negotiation of applicable privacy and data protection language in agreements with affiliates, vendors, and customers.

Monitor and interpret U.S. and Canadian regulatory and legislative developments relating to privacy, AI, data protection, consumer protection, digital regulation, product governance, and data use, and translate those developments into practical guidance for business and legal stakeholders.

Increase awareness among business clients and global privacy and legal teams regarding privacy, data protection, and regulatory developments pertaining to Mastercard through training and other initiatives.
