Co-presenter, "The Privacy Road Ahead: The California Consumer Privacy Act and Strategic Planning for 2019," Davis Wright Tremaine Webinar
By Rachel R. Marmor and Alexander B. Reynolds
11.15.18
The magnitude of the compliance effort many businesses will undertake to become compliant with the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) should not be underestimated. Despite its facial similarity to Europe’s new privacy law, the GDPR, the CCPA is a different law with different goals, a different enforcement scheme, and perhaps most notably, a different and expanded definition of personal information.
At this webinar, DWT attorneys discussed:
- What the law does, and what it doesn’t.
- Why the CCPA makes data governance a paramount compliance priority.
- Unresolved issues of statutory interpretation and how they could affect compliance.
- How lessons learned from GDPR implementation can ease CCPA compliance efforts.
- Triage: what your 2019 compliance roadmap might look like and the activities that should be prioritized.
