Is 2023 the year when the US finally shifts to a rights-based regime for protecting personal information? Perhaps! We are now beyond the CCPA and even the CPRA. We have 10 state comprehensive consumer privacy laws governing the use of personal information, and more are expected to pass this year. The continuing promulgation of these consumer privacy laws make it clear the US is going through a fundamental shift in its philosophy about data privacy. Join us to learn about what these news laws are trying to protect, where they are coming from, and how to create a foundation from which to analyze and understand their requirements. We will also discuss how to create a flexible compliance program that accounts for the rapidly evolving privacy landscape.

With growing demands of the business, legal departments face challenges in terms of re-organising support and adapting to the changing requirements of the business. In this session, we are going to analyse current processes and bottlenecks, understand how legal operations can revolutionise the process and how to find a balance between outsourcing versus keeping in-house. We will also go through the changing needs of the business, including supporting sustainability initiatives while negotiating contracts or working on other legal related initiatives.
