Educational Outreach
Digital privacy affects every person, yet most people don't know their rights or how to exercise them. ODIPA closes that gap with free, practical education that meets people where they are.
Free to publicODIPA's Educational Outreach program is our largest and most direct consumer service. We offer free online courses, live webinars, and in-person workshops that explain privacy rights and practical protective measures in plain language — no legal or technical background required. Our content targets the populations most at risk: seniors, students, low-income communities, and anyone who hasn't had access to quality privacy education. We measure success not by clicks but by behavior change: participants who understand how to opt out, how to read a privacy policy, and how to protect themselves.
