About the IAPP

Lincoln Guy, CIPP/US, CIPP/CA, CIPT, CIPM, FIP has been working in the consumer finance industry since 2005. He has a background in data privacy, risk management, compliance, and training. Lincoln has built training, compliance, and privacy programs from the ground up and worked with partners around the world to do the same.

As a child, Lincoln loved chocolate chip cookies and computers. That interest has come full circle to his love of privacy and trimming the fat out of web cookies.  That passion continued to develop as he found a great community of mentors in the professions greatly influencing his life and career. After the Anthem Data Breach in 2015 and his then 5-year-old daughter suffered identity theft, he has been hooked on the topic.

He holds a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Psychology from Capella University and lives in Orange County, California.
