The constantly-evolving patchwork of state, national, and international data protection and breach notice laws can give rise to untold liability for well-meaning businesses of all types. Whether collecting, storing, and using customer data for sales or marketing, or employee data for human resources purposes, data privacy concerns present a risk for nearly all organizations. Due to the rate at which the legal landscape is changing, even well-crafted privacy and internal security policies will almost assuredly become inaccurate or outdated over time.
At Bast Amron, we regularly advise clients regarding compliance with existing state, national, and international data privacy laws, including states’ various data protection and breach notification statutes, the Federal Trade Commission Act, and the General Data Protection Regulation, as well as forthcoming or proposed laws which may affect our clients’ practices.
