LexisNexis and Nymity Announce Strategic Alliance

BALTIMORE, MD, Sept. 30 /PRNewswire/ - Today, at the IAPP Privacy Academy, Nymity, the producer of the world's leading compliance knowledgebase and alerting service for privacy and data protection (PrivaWorks) announced a strategic alliance with LexisNexis, the leading global provider of content-enabled workflow solutions designed specifically for professionals in the legal, risk management, corporate, government, law enforcement, accounting, and academic markets. The strategic alliance includes:

    1.  LexisNexis Content Provider: Nymity has a multiyear research contract
        to provide privacy compliance content for LexisNexis. LexisNexis
        recognized the expertise of Nymity's dedicated in-house research team
        consisting of privacy lawyers and former Chief Privacy Officers and
        selected Nymity to produce privacy compliance content. LexisNexis
        subscribers who also have access to Nymity's PrivaWorks have an
        additional benefit of accessing cited References in PrivaWorks.

    2.  PrivaWorks Reference Source Integration: PrivaWorks subscribers now
        benefit from the LexisNexis legal database as Nymity's Research Team
        mines and monitor the database for new and relevant privacy case law,
        and produce References for the PrivaWorks Knowledgebase, which in
        turn sends out Alerts to PrivaWorks Subscribers. LexisNexis' database
        contains the hard-to-find but important privacy case law that is not
        publically available. Subscribers to Lexis.com have an additional
        benefit as they will be able to access relevant case law in the
        LexisNexis database directly from PrivaWorks. LexisNexis recognizes
        Nymity's Reference Analysis which complements the value of the
        LexisNexis database offering.

    3.  Nymity Corporate Privacy Compliance Handbook: LexisNexis is the
        publisher of this practical handbook, written by Nymity's research
        team, which guides readers in the development and/or evaluation of
        their corporate privacy/security policies and procedures to help
        ensure their privacy practices are compliant. This publication is a
        valuable resource to help develop, evaluate and implement corporate
        privacy compliance strategy.

Terry McQuay, President of Nymity states: "This strategic alliance provides a great deal of value to both Nymity and LexisNexis customers. This alliance works extremely well due the complementary nature of the offerings".
