How to Create a Memoji on an iPhone

Regular text and email users (and most everybody else by now, really) are likely familiar with emoji.

Adding to their popularity, emoji recently took on a more personal touch.

FTC to Utilize New Vendor for Directory

FTC to Utilize New Vendor for Directory
FTC is transitioning the development of its directory, including its yellow pages, to the nation’s largest and oldest directory publisher of rural telephone cooperatives. Vivial, formerly known as the Berry Company and based out of Dayton, OH, will be taking over for Data Publishing, which produced the FTC “phone book” for the past decade. Dent Adams, FTC’s chief operating officer-subsidiaries, leads the division that oversees the directory. “Change is never easy, but we just found it was the perfect time for us, and we are excited about this partnership,” Adams said. “We conducted an exhaustive search and chose Vivial because...

4 tech tools that support touchless and low-touch payments

4 tech tools that support touchless and low-touch payments

Among the most popular ways businesses are keeping customer-worker contact to a minimum and safety precautions at...

What is the CPRA, and what does it mean for businesses?

What is the CPRA, and what does it mean for businesses?
Upon going into effect on Jan. 1, 2020, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) sent shock waves across the online business and marketing worlds by ushering in the nation’s toughest consumer-geared digital privacy protections. For many enterprises doing in-person or online business in California (and even for some whose websites were simply visited by California consumers), it created a host of new requirements regarding the collection and use of consumers’ personal data. For businesses meeting certain thresholds defined in the law, it required making revisions to their websites and other digital assets, including updating their privacy policies, preparing to respond...

6 business benefits of using virtual servers
When a business needs a way to keep its computer files, business critical applications, mail servers, website files and a range of other digital assets secure and easily accessible to approved users, a virtual server can provide a simple and effective solution with a long list of benefits.

Ways Consumers Can Make Their Holiday Shopping Safer (and Smoother) During the Pandemic

Ways Consumers Can Make Their Holiday Shopping Safer (and Smoother) During the Pandemic
With the coronavirus pandemic still upon us, this holiday season promises to be distinctly different from the ones American consumers are used to celebrating. This year, the in-person Christmas parties are likely to be few and far between; many family celebrations are bound to be shifted to online video chats rather than gatherings at Grandma’s house; and if the kids can even find a Santa to visit for Christmas-wish-list sharing, he’s likely to be wearing a mask when they sit in his lap — if that’s allowed at all. The holiday shopping season is bound to see some major changes...
