Privacy & Security Law Insights

  •  

In today’s world, where companies are collecting, using, and sharing personal information on an unprecedented scale, honoring consumers’ choices about how data is used and disclosed and securing personal data from unauthorized disclosure is critical. We have been pioneers in the dynamic area of privacy and security law, serving highly regulated industries, such as communications, healthcare and financial services, for decades. As privacy and information security requirements have evolved to extend beyond these historically regulated industries to apply to virtually every business organization, we have expanded our counseling to advise companies in other industry sectors, such as technology, media, entertainment, retail, advertising, and more.

Our core Privacy and Security team counsels clients regarding internal employee information, consumer-facing requirements associated with marketing and payments, protecting companies from cyber-attacks, cross-border data transfers, vendor management, due diligence in the context of mergers and acquisitions, and more.

This resource is intended to provide regular updates and commentary with respect to this multifaceted field, from a legal perspective. As detailed in the Disclaimer, we are not providing specific legal advice; for that, our firm can provide an array of legal services that may interest you. We hope to provide a one-stop source of important news and information about privacy and security for your perusal. Please bookmark us or subscribe to our RSS feed, and feel free to contact us if you have any comments or suggestions.
