FPF’s monthly Privacy Landscape call is scheduled for next Tuesday, Feb. 19, 2019 from 4pm-5pm ET.
The call will focus on state privacy legislation, with particular attention paid to the California Consumer Privacy Act and Senator Carlyle’s consumer privacy bill in Washington State. We expect a robust discussion and will set aside plenty of time for Q&A.
We are fortunate to be joined by Jim Halpert, Co-Chair of DLA Piper’s Global Data Protection, Privacy and Security Practice and Alex Alben, Washington State’s Chief Privacy Officer. Jim is a trusted voice in innumerable state privacy discussions. Alex has deep insight into the ongoing process re: the proposed Washington Privacy Act, including the just-published substitute bill.

Future of Privacy Forum (FPF) invites you to join us on Friday, June 7th, 2019 for a roundtable discussion with Dr. Johnny Ryan, Chief Policy & Industry Relations Officer for Brave Software, to discuss The Future of Ad Tech – Emerging Business Models and Designing for Privacy.
Prior to joining Brave Software, Dr. Ryan was Head of Ecosystem for PageFair, and Chief Innovation Officer of The Irish Times. In recent years, he has been a prominent privacy advocate in the EU, working with digital rights organizations to file formal complaints with regulators in the UK, Ireland, Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg, related to advocates’ concerns about the Ad Tech industry and current real-time bidding (RTB) practices (read the primary regulatory complaint here). More recently, Dr. Ryan testified before the U.S. Senate Judicary Committee in a May 21st hearing, “Understanding the Digital Advertising Ecosystem and the Impact of Data Privacy and Competition Policy.” (Watch the hearing)
The discussion will be moderated by Stacey Gray, Senior Counsel at the Future of Privacy Forum.
We will discuss with the group:
- What does the future hold for alternative Ad Tech business models, including blockchain and attention-based models such as the Brave Attention Token (BAT)?
- What does engineering for privacy, or “privacy by design,” mean in the context of advertising technology?
- What’s on the horizon for Ad Tech in Europe?
- & any other questions you have — please feel free to send your questions ahead of time.
Lunch will be provided.
** Invitation only — Limit 1 per organization & non-transferable. **
Each month, the Future of Privacy Forum hosts a call with thought leaders to discuss topical issues related to privacy and responsible data use.
We will provide an update and opportunity to discuss recent privacy updates to the Android and iOS platforms and app stores.
We will also discuss recent legislative developments regarding biometric technologies. Lawmakers are increasingly passing or considering measures that would limit use of facial recognition or other biometric tech by government agencies and/or companies. These issues are top of mind for legislators at the federal, state, and municipal levels.
Dial-in info for US callers and commonly requested international numbers are below. If you need an additional country-specific dial-in, please let me know.
We look forward to hearing from everyone – it promises to be a great call!

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) goes into effect on January 1, 2020. While the specifics are still being hammered out, the CCPA will inevitably change how businesses around the world operate. Join data privacy experts, Mark Kahn (General Counsel, Segment), Melissa Maalouf (Shareholder, ZwillGen), and Jeremy Greenberg (Policy Fellow, Future of Privacy Forum), for a fireside chat on the CCPA and the future of consumer data privacy.
In this webinar, you’ll learn:
- What the CCPA means for your industry
- Actionable advice for how you can prepare for the CCPA
- Changes we expect to see before the CCPA even goes into effect
- Regulatory trends impacting data privacy at the state and federal level
Please join Charter Communications and the Future of Privacy Forum for a conversation with two leading members of Congress who will share their perspective on this important issue and potential legislative solutions.
This event will feature Rep. Jan Schakowsky, Chair and Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, Ranking Member of House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Consumer Protection and Commerce.
A light breakfast will be served. Please email [email protected] to RSVP.
The USENIX Conference on Privacy Engineering Practice and Respect (PEPR) is a single-track conference focused on designing and building products and systems with privacy and respect for their users and the societies in which they operate. Our goal is to improve the state of the art and practice of building for privacy and respect and to foster a deeply knowledgeable community of both privacy practitioners and researchers who collaborate towards that goal.
For August, we’re thrilled that NIST will join us to share an updated draft of their Privacy Framework to seek feedback prior to its planned October 2019 release.
Join us at 6pm for networking. Program starts at 6:30pm.
Presenters include:
- Naomi Lefkovitz, Senior Privacy Policy Advisor and Lead, Privacy Framework, NIST
- Ellen Nadeau, Deputy Manager, Privacy Framework, NIST
The aim of the symposium is to foster interaction among diverse communities of research and practice using contextual integrity to reason about privacy, and to design and evaluate, craft regulation, and generate formal logics for privacy.
As the goal of the workshop is to foster discussion around works in progress, the workshop will not publish formal proceedings (so as to not preclude the publication of subsequent versions of those works, improved by workshop feedback). However, with authors’ permission, we will post accepted submissions on the website.
