Free Webinar on Social Media and the Law
SOCIAL MEDIA: WHAT YOUR NONPROFIT NEEDS TO KNOW
Thursday, February 9
12:00 p.m.–1:00 p.m. Eastern Time
The webinar is free of charge.
Social media is becoming an important tool for nonprofits to communicate with their supporters, increase awareness of their mission and raise funds.
At the same time, there are many legal issues for a nonprofit to consider when using social media. Do the rules regarding copyrights and trademarks apply? Is a nonprofit responsible for material posted on its Facebook page? Are there any privacy concerns? What if an employee posts inappropriate information on the Internet during working hours? What policies should a nonprofit put in place?
This webinar will help answer these questions and give your nonprofit advice about how to navigate the new world of social media. The webinar is designed for board members, executive directors and other nonprofit staff and volunteers responsible for marketing, communications and fundraising.
The presenters will be: Becky Burr and David Cavanaugh, Partners at the law firm of WilmerHale.
If you have any questions, please e–mail Lauren Paley.
