Data Privacy and Technology
In today’s data-driven world, where technology powers global business and innovation, navigating the data and technology legal landscape has never been more critical or complex. Your company’s digital presence, from social media platforms to cloud services, is a strategic necessity. These digital assets drive customer engagement, innovation, and growth. However, they also introduce significant risks, particularly in data privacy and security.
Cyberattacks, unauthorized data sharing, and privacy violations can lead to severe financial penalties and reputational harm. As a result of high-profile data breaches, businesses must navigate an increasingly complex web of global regulations, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and other evolving state, federal, and international privacy frameworks. Emerging challenges, such as algorithm accountability and social media content governance, add further layers of complexity.
