November Privacy Lab – CCPA Panel

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) provides broader rights to consumers and stricter compliance requirements for businesses than any other state or federal privacy law on the books. Preparing for CCPA requires expert judgment and team effort. Arguably, the most challenging unanswered question is this: What is a sale under CCPA?

Join this panel of highly experienced privacy lawyers to discuss and benchmark the CCPA’s tougher questions and newest developments.
