Privacy legislation will likely be among the major policy
initiatives in the 117th Congress. Implementation of the European
Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and
California's enactment of the California Consumer Privacy Act
(CCPA) spurred renewed interest at the federal level to pursue
comprehensive legislation to address growing concerns about
privacy. If enacted, a federal privacy law could potentially affect
every sector of the US economy by regulating how companies collect
and use the information of hundreds of millions of Americans.
Join Mintz and ML Strategies for a webinar that
explores the issues surrounding federal privacy legislation. Topics
will include:
- What types of information could be subject to federal legislation?
- What obligations are best placed on covered entities that collect and use data?
- What choices should consumers have regarding the collection and use of their personal information?
- How is a US federal privacy law likely to compare to GDPR and other laws, both domestic and international?
- What would be the optimal enforcement regime of any federal privacy law?
- What role should states play?
