Custom Privacy Strategies Where Litigation and Regulation Collide
Thursday, 8 Oct.
16:00 - 17:00 PDT
Intermediate level
Companies and institutions must now navigate evolving regulatory requirements while responding to a growing wave of litigation that does not always follow the same playbook.
This panel brings together leading privacy attorneys with expertise on both the litigation and regulatory side to discuss how businesses can approach these overlapping challenges through practical, real-world examples and live demonstrations. Using common scenarios, from cookie banners to server-side tracking, they will explore where companies often misunderstand their obligations, how regulatory compliance and litigation risk can diverge, and why there is no one-size-fits-all approach to privacy.
Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of today's legal landscape and practical considerations for building privacy programs that align with compliance obligations, litigation risk and business objectives.
What you will learn:
- Understand how litigation risk, like wiretap claims under CIPA, and regulatory compliance can diverge, and why solutions built for one do not automatically satisfy the other.
- Learn how to evaluate real-world exposure versus overstated risk when facing a complaint or demand letter, including how factors like service provider or agent status under CCPA come into play.
- Gain a practical framework for building privacy programs that hold up against both litigation and regulatory scrutiny, without over-investing in the wrong protections.
