Overview Oculus VisionTech (TSXV:OVT,OTCQB:OVTZ,FSE:USF1) is a technology company focused on developing innovative data privacy solutions within the growing data governance and compliance markets. The company’s Forget Me Yes solution is a software as a service (SaaS) platform that aims to streamline how companies handle data and navigate complex regulatory environments. Oculus VisionTech is targeting the global RegTech market that is expected to reach US$55.28 billion by 2025 expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 52.8 percent according to Markets and Markets.Today’s companies are expected to keep pace with modern data protection regulations. While these regulations vary by jurisdiction, modern governments continue to assess and pass new laws regarding data privacy. For example, Europe’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) represent two of the most stringent systems of data regulation in the world. These regulations empower individuals and organizations with the right to access and request the deletion of personal information—otherwise known as the right to be forgotten, or the right of erasure. Regulations like the GDPR and the CCPA allow individuals to submit what’s known as a data subject access request (DSAR), which must be fulfilled within a certain timeframe and cannot require a fee. A DSAR response on behalf of an organization typically includes access to personal data, a lawful basis for its possession, and the names of third parties that share its access, among other relevant details. The GDPR is arguably the most challenging compliance framework businesses could encounter. The average cost of compliance for organizations across all industries is US$5.47 million, however, these costs can vary significantly based on the digital infrastructure needed for compliance. The growth of the data governance market can be attributed to growing privacy concerns among the public as well as the risk of non-compliance penalties, which are often substantial. The importance of data privacy and protections took the mainstream by storm in 2018 when data analytics firm Cambridge Analytica was revealed to be harvesting the Facebook data of tens of millions of users. The data was then allegedly used to influence the United States’ Presidential Election. While the cost of the Cambridge Analytica scandal remains incalculable, a recent GDPR breach survey estimates more than 175 million Euros has been collected in GDPR fines since 2018. On average, non-compliance costs businesses upwards of US$4 million. Importantly, non-compliance costs more than twice the cost of maintaining compliance, incentivizing companies to get ahead of the regulatory challenges involved with handling digital data. Oculus VisionTech is hoping to streamline compliance with a data privacy tool that guarantees the right to be forgotten by targeting long-term data storage that has been held for backup and recovery purposes. “Our Right-To-Be-Forgotten platform will address the requirements of data privacy regulation implementing a modern platform to ensure compliance across an organization’s entire array of data processing capabilities,” said CEO Rowland Perkins. “We are excited to incorporate innovative data protections into the Oculus product offering. As a developer of next-generation data protection and security offerings, we see a synergy between Oculus and the Right-To-Be-Forgotten Platform and our team will be examining unique applications and market opportunities for Oculus.” Since the GDPR was implemented in May 2018, organizations have been forced to adapt to comprehensive compliance legislation and growing privacy concerns. In addition to the GDPR, the COVID-19 pandemic has forced both public and private sectors to rethink data privacy once more. In particular, the rapid transition between in-office and remote work has forced many IT departments to remain compliant while large portions of the workforce transition to remote workspaces. As businesses continue to rely heavily on digital systems to maintain and protect their data, Oculus VisionTech aims to provide secure solutions to both protect and permanently delete sensitive information. Oculus VisionTech’s management team consists of industry experts who have held high-level positions at corporations such as Sony, HP, and Amazon Web Services. The company plans to leverage its experience and expertise in the tech industry while continuing to develop and market its innovative products and services. President and founder Michael Johson in particular is a tech industry veteran, creating Oculus VisionTech after spending time as the Business Development Director with the Archival Solutions Division at Sony Electronics. Company Highlights Forget Me Yes platform is designed to secure, protect and delete sensitive information used by corporations with data-heavy business modelsThe RegTech market is expected to reach US$55.28 billion by 2025 expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 52.8 percentThe average cost of compliance for organizations across all industries is US$5.47 millionThe approximate cost to non-compliant businesses is double the estimated cost of implementing compliant systems and platformsThe growth of the data governance market can be attributed to growing privacy concerns, especially those driven by the Cambridge Analytica scandalForget Me Yes platform is compliant with the GDPR, the most stringent data privacy protection legislation in the worldPresident and CEO Michael Johnson brings significant experience to the team, including time spent as Development Director with the Archival Solutions Division at Sony ElectronicsRecent agreement with NOX Co. Ltd. to introduce the ComplyScanTM cloud-backup compliance reporting and Forget-Me-YesTM data privacy management products through Japan and Asia-Pacific (APAC) wide sales channels.Agreement with Nitech to introduce the ComplyScanTM cloud-backup compliance reporting and Forget-Me-YesTM data privacy management products to their Western US-based SMB and Enterprise customers. “Forget Me Yes” Platform Data privacy has always been important, however, increasing public awareness and government action have turned privacy into a highly-publicized issue. Growing concerns about how personal data was being used by massive corporations came to a head in the first half of 2018, when Facebook’s Cambridge Analytica scandal captured the attention—and outrage—of the media, the public, and most importantly, regulators around the world. In May 2018, the GDPR took effect for any organization operating within the European Union as well as its business partners. In practice, the data protection methods outlined by the GDPR can be costly and burdensome, however, the costs of fines and repairs to non-compliant systems can be even heavier.Streamlining Compliance Oculus VisionTech is developing a SaaS platform designed to meet the complex compliance requirements set forth by the GDPR and similar data governance legislation. The platform guarantees the right to be forgotten by ensuring that personal data is stored in a way that neither the customer nor a third-party service may gain direct access. The Forget Me Yes platform does this by “remembering” what information to “forget” through the encrypted protections and automatic systems of deletion. The platform will follow what is commonly referred to as zero-knowledge protocol with end-to-end encryption, whereby only the subscriber can access their personal data. The Forget Me Yes platform is designed to help businesses avoid non-compliance fines while satisfying consumer concerns over data protection and privacy.Next Steps The Forget Me Yes platform is on track for deployment by the first quarter of 2021. The worldwide market for privacy management software reached US$5.2 billion in 2018 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.7 percent between 2019 and 2027. The global market for GDPR services alone is expected to reach US$4.04 billion by 2025 with a CAGR of 23.4 percent. The global market for data compliance management may continue to grow due to the rapid transition between in-person and remote work catalyzed by the COVID-19 pandemic. As organizations continue the search for data privacy tools that are easy to implement while remaining reliably effective, Oculus VisionTech is aiming to fulfill this need with its upcoming SaaS platform.Management Team Rowland Perkins – President, CEO, and Director Mr. Perkins was formerly the President & Chief Executive Officer of ebackup Inc.

Applied UV, Inc. (NasdaqCM: AUVI ) ("Applied UV" or the "Company"), a pathogen elimination technology company that applies the power of narrow-range ultraviolet light ("UVC") for surface areas and catalytic bioconversion technology for air purification to destroy pathogens safely, thoroughly, and automatically affirms that its pathogen killing technology SteriLumen's Airocide® and Lumicide are highly effective, differentiating solutions for addressing recent recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) for cleaning and disinfecting settings that may be contaminated with Monkeypox and other orthopoxviruses.

In a recent publication, available here , the CDC provided considerations for disinfecting settings that may be contaminated with Monkeypox virus and highlighted the virus' sensitive to UV light, disinfectants and household cleaners in a tweet available here .

John F. Andrews Applied UV's CEO and Director stated, "As the only public, pure-play air and surface disinfection company, we are uniquely capable of capturing a significant portion of the emerging market opportunity affirmed by the CDC's recommendations. We have a growing list of business case uses for global, highly recognized customers such as Whole Foods, Del Monte, the Boston Red Sox, Opus One and Tru Infusion, across a diversity of vertical markets including healthcare, cannabis, correctional facilities, schools, wineries, dairy and food preservation that use our Airocide product suite and attest to its efficacy. The emergence of Monkeypox, which is an airborne and surface transmitted pathogen, presents an additional opportunity for us to apply our clinically-proven Airocide and Lumicide technologies to eradicate the virus from virtually any contaminated setting and reduce the risk of spread. Independent research has affirmed that orthopoxviruses, including Monkeypox, can survive in an environment for weeks or months and porous materials may harbor live viruses for longer periods of time. Airocide, which was developed for NASA and the University of Wisconsin at Madison, is more effective than ultra-violet (UV) solutions as it utilizes Photocatalytic Oxidation (PCO) technology to completely trap and destroy any and all carbon-based airborne viruses by oxidation without any harmful by-products, and our patented Lumicide surface and drain UVC technology will destroy any surface related Monkeypox virus. We are encouraged by the CDC's proactive efforts to provide guidance on ways to clean, disinfect and reduce the risk of spread, and we look forward to applying our industry-leading solution to help keep people healthy and safe."

The Airocide® System, originally developed for NASA with assistance from the University of Wisconsin at Madison, is an airborne pathogen killing technology that uses a patented combination of UVC and a proprietary, titanium dioxide based photocatalyst. Listed as an FDA Class II Medical device, the Airocide® technology is clinically proven and field tested to kill/remove/eliminate airborne pathogenic and non-pathogenic microorganisms, allergens, odors and harmful VOCs in a variety of applications and industries including healthcare, hospitality, grocery chains, wineries, commercial real estate, schools, dental offices and homes. Airocide® air purifiers are available at www.airocide.com .

More than 250,000 attendees are expected during the six days of the show.

At the IAA Transportation Trade Show 2022 dynaCERT will be exhibiting its proprietary HydraGEN™ Technology designed to reduce fuel consumption and pollutants such as GHG's currently available globally for small, medium and large diesel vehicles and generators.

IAA Transportation presents the world of buses, van, trucks, trailers and bodies in all its facets.

International opinion leaders from all relevant industries will be discussing the challenges of our time and present their solutions and visions for the global and regional transport of the future.

dynaCERT will be exhibiting at Booth D15 in Hall 24 with demonstrations of its flagship products, the internationally renowned HG1 and HG2.

Daily presentations of the company's HydraLytica TM app will held at 11:00 am and 3:00 pm throughout the exhibition.

Enrico Schlaepfer, Vice President Global Sales & Marketing for dynaCERT , states, "As part of our CCF (Corporate Carbon Footprint) at dynaCERT , we not only want to reduce world-wide CO 2 e emissions with our HydraGEN™ Technology, but also feel compelled this year to make our booth at the "IAA Transportation" absolutely 100% climate neutral. We pursue an approach that is more transparent and comprehensible than a simple CO 2 e-Offset Certificate. For each component of our exhibit, we calculate the exact amount of CO 2 e emissions and then offset this GHG footprint by planting trees at the Hanover exhibition center and the surrounding area. The Company's HydraGEN™ Technology is the one technology that bridges the gap to the ecological transition and provides a cost-effective solution to the world today!"
